Let me begin with yet another disclaimer: I don’t remember ever being so satisfied with my life as I am right now. My community group at Athens Church is incredible, my workout regimen with my brother is showing tangible results, my recent work on websites has been professionally fulfilling, my social groups are buzzing, and my financial state is healthy praise the Lord. Life is good, and that’s understating it. I am truly blessed.

I hope that many of my fellow bloggers are reading this, since it is some of their recent Facebook and Twitter posts that have inspired these notes. So let’s begin this–maybe my first ever “single man’s rant” provoked during a life state of honest contentment and true joy:

It breaks my heart to see lovely Christian girls publicly taking stabs at the general population of boys. Often this is done light-heartedly and I get that. But there are boys out there like me who read these things and think to themselves: “if she felt about me the way I feel about her, she’d be happy” or “if she’d say yes to me, she wouldn’t have that problem.” These are just a couple of attempts to paraphrase the thoughts in our heads, but I promise you that for every status posted about being better off without boys or about waiting for Prince Charming, there is a well-intentioned hopeless romantic desiring to be recognized. Guard your hearts ladies, but for pete sake open your eyes.

Leave comments and I’ll respond.
