The Single Woman’s Dash of Sass: September 2, 2011

Quote of the Day:

“We have a better chance of seeing where we are when we stop trying to get somewhere else. We can enjoy every moment of movement, as long as where we are is as good as where we’d like to be. That’s not to say that you need to be satisfied forever with where you are today. But you need to honor what you’ve accomplished, rather than thinking of what’s left to be done.” ~John Bingham

The Single Woman Says:

Yesterday was by far one for the record books. It was one of those days that you need a written record of to believe actually happened…because it was a day that I have waited on for so long, I thought it would never come.

My “Mr. Big” told me he loved me. For the first time ever.

Only took him five years to figure it out.

I don’t know what it means. I don’t know if it means anything. I don’t know if it changes a thing. And I don’t know if they were just three words that spilled out of his mouth with no intent to ever back them up with action.

And the thing is…I don’t need to know. At least not right now.

I’m not so concerned with the old memories at the moment. And what could have been doesn’t really matter to me at all. Today, I leave on a spontaneous road trip with two of my girlfriends to chase childhood dreams and unforgettable moments and new memories. And all I see stretched ahead of me is what IS and what is yet to come.

Mr. Big, and love, and tomorrow will take care of itself.

Today…I’ve got TODAY. And it’s enough.
