Where Are All of the Good Ones?

There is a time in everyone's life where you constantly hear the complaints of relationships. Either you hope it never happens to you or not to become so cynical  or you begin to wonder if the good ones your age have all gone. The idea of being so jaded as to think that men are all the same or that the good ones are already married, gone home to be with the Lord or about to be has to be a recipe to cringe. I allow patience to have her perfect work ( James 1:4 KJV ); because the alternative is listed above. When coming to the understanding that you can't trust anyone but God , I thought it was such an epiphany. Wisdom would continue to give me more nuggets and I would have the handle on finally being in a successful relationship. However, what happens is that while wisdom does what she does, life doesn't stop. People continue to change and one day you're hit in the face, like a brick hurled at full force.

Please go over that chapter of scriptures before sending me your angry emails. It was not my decision to make woman for man.... ok? Go to God with your rant. So, there she is. She is woman. What do you want her to do Adam? He yells out (in my mind), “...bone of my bone. Flesh of my flesh...” Was that an answer? Yeah, I won’t go through all of that again. If you would like to read the verses and my issues with what I have been taught about Adam, please go to this link here  and here . Nevertheless, the 2 of them together were to replenish the earth and continue
