Mis ceños y sonríes


My mother has been talking to me about guys these days..my future...marriage to be specific.

"Marry late," she says. "Get a career first"

Personally, I'll marry whenever I want, whenever I feel like, and whenever I'm ready. And, of course, when the good man comes along. But these feelings do not compare with the feelings I get when I think of how much of a committment marriage is.

How can someone ever find that one person they know they want to spend their whole lives with? How does one make a decision like that? I'm yours forever. Wow. Marriage is no joke, huh? It really boggles me that we can find that one person in the universe that we want to spend eternity with.
I can't imagine my married self serving dinner. I fantasize and think about my future self alot, but this is not one of my fantasies. I can't imagine myself with a family. (That sound? That's my mother exploding with disappointment.)

I can see myself as a mingling singleton. An independent individual free to do whatever, whereever and whenever she wants. Not afraid of taking risks and embracing the world.
