A kind-of-but-not-really love note

Dear future boyfriend/husband/manfriend,

Here are a few things I find extreme comfort in:

I don't have to worry about

how goofy I act in public
or if I am asking too many questions
or if I am being too "clingy"
or the extremely weird and out of no where things I tend to say
or if I need to like the same kind of music as you
or if I need to dress a certain way
or if I have to say the right things
or if I know certain quotes
or if I watch certain movies
or if I am funny enough
or if I like the same sports as you
or if I know the rules of football

Because there are only a few things that matter

that I am following my heart
       and by my heart I mean the things the Lord puts on my heart
that I have grace
that I take each step hand in hand with Jesus
and that I want what the Lord wants of me.

And all of that other nonsense won't even matter, because you'll see how goofy I act and love it, you'll love me despite the fact that I say weird things or even the fact that sometimes I sing off key- everything about me will for some reason attract you to me.

I don't have to try to be someone. I get to be me, and you'll find me as I am.
God will bring us together.

I trust Him. And I trust that He has made me to be the woman I am for a reason and for that reason, you'll love me, just as He does. And I promise to love you for your goofy ways too.
