Where's the choir?

Today's XKCD is priceless!

I suppose that is because I can relate. I don't know if I believe that there is a "choir of angels," but I'm not ready settle for "what I have" as "what I want."

People give up when they get comfortable. They give up on their dreams, they give up on their goals, they give up on their hopes. They just settle in and get comfortable with what they have.

Their lousy jobs. A mate they don't love.

I know about the former, because I'm still working on my exit strategy there.

I also know about the latter, because I was there. I won't say that I didn't love her, because I did... but deep down, I always knew that I was settling. At one time, she was a great person, but she was never the one for me.

I probably haven't yet met that special someone... at least I've never heard the choir of angels.

Perhaps there is an angel, watching over me, ready to call that choir together when I do meet her.

Until then, I'm not going to live that idealistically. I'll just keep doing what I'm doing. I'm enjoying being single. I'm enjoying getting to know all of these lovely, gorgeous and fun women. I'm enjoying that they are enjoying me... and everything I have to offer!

And, in the midst of having all of these ladies on the side, if one turns out to be truly exceptional, then she will be the one I'll spend all of my time with.

Not out of a sense of scarcity as in the past, but out of a sense that we truly want to be together.

Now, that's the way it should be.
