Disasters: Dating Profile Headline of the Day
Be prepared for a date.
We are told from many sources to plan for our future, disaster waits at every turn, mayhem is following you, waiting to drop a tree on your car.
But do you really prepare for the disasters that can happen as you are dating?
My favorite is what to eat on a date. Stay away from anything that can be slurped: soups, spaghetti, etc. Food on your shirt is a certain “No” to anything further happening unless you’re good at passing off a “disaster” as just something that happens.
It’s not fashionable to be late for any of the first five dates but what if something really does go wrong? Are you prepared to deal with this and have a “let’s try again” scenario you can fall back on?
I’m also reminded of our personal treasures and what was written a few years ago about personal treasures being passed along in a family. Certainly the death of a parent is a heart-wrenchingly difficult time. What is worse, we find out later, is that the personal treasures of the loved one that passed on are not appreciated and just tossed into the trash or sold for a few extra dollars. Plan for the ultimate disaster and your personal treasures will continue to be treasured.
Be certain you are understood and be prepared for the worst, the two advices we’re told often but rarely follow.
For your headline today be prepared for a date with this:
“Look to the horizon, is your ship coming in?”
Have a great day!
Are You There?: Dating Profile Headline of the Day
The Japan tsunami disaster
Are we soon to witness a nuclear meltdown in Japan? More than one?
In times of great distress, where everything you had is gone in a flash, as is being experienced by hundreds of thousands of Japanese people, that love is the only thing that wil carry you through the ordeal.
Knowing that the people you hold most dear are alive and safe is more important than possessions and money. It is love that gives our lives real meaning.
If you’re rich your money may have had made life more comfortable before the disaster and may make rescue of family and loved ones a higher priority after the disaster (because you’d have the financial resources to attempt a rescue more feasible), but Mother Nature doesn’t care about bank accounts or social status. We are all susceptible to the same level of destruction as our neighbor is in the moment of disaster. It is love that carries us from the worst that could happen to the joy of knowing the people we hold most dear are alive and safe.
We see this joy over and over replayed in the news.
If you are alone, if you have no one, who will you share the joy of living with? Who will look for you if disaster strikes?
Hell, what happens if you have the flu or a simple cold?
Family, friends and lovers, these are the people that get us through the tough moments that life (and Mother Nature) throws at us.
And when you’re actively looking for love it’s love that you expect to find. Now, I can’t tell you where you’ll find love. It could be at an online dating service, it could be when when you bump into a stranger at the grocery store.
But if you’re actively looking for love you will find it.
For a headstart maybe you want to change the headline of your online dating profile to this:
“Love means never having to ask ‘Are you there?’ “
Have a great day!
