Kristin Billerbeck

“There are plenty of fish in the sea. But really, there's not. It's not just our imaginations. It would be great if decent men were as plentiful as jumping salmon in a rushing river, but they aren't. For every Mr. Darcy (and he's married, incidentally) there are a hundred Mr. Wickhams. Or in more contemporary terms, for ever one of Colin Firth, there are several thousand Hugh Grants. The odds are against us. But what can I say--I'm a romantic, and I can't abandon the fantasy of Prince Charming altogether. What girl with a heart can? I mean, I'm not asking to feed the five thousand; I just want one good fish!”

So many Cinderellas and only so many Prince Charmings...  Alas so many stepsisters...  So many desperate...  Don't live life quietly desperate...  Live a life that matters...  In God's will...  Because that is where I want to be...  Finding someone is icing but it is not the end all be all...  That you do on your own...
