Life or Something Like it

I'm constantly amazed at how people are so diverse. Some fascinate me (these are most of you. I'm friends with most of them), some bore me, some bother me, and some I look at and realize they just don't get life.
On my connecting flight to Idaho Falls I sat beside a man who was 70, he really only looked 60. Anyways, that is really not my point. He was a different character. I know all about him and I'm going to give a brief synopsis. He has been a pilot for 50 years starting in the navy, then he went commercial and now he has private jets. He was on his way to pick up a new one. I asked if he had a jet why he was on our plane. How was I to know? He kept asking if there were men in my life, what I thought of older men, etc. Yes, he was married. I think he was hitting on me but who knows. I might just be flattering myself. I quickly found my i-pod and put it in so I would have to continue listening. He was quite the talker.
Why is it that it seems like everyone is interested in everyone else's dating status. You go to church and people ask. You talk to your friends and they ask. I think that if there were any new prospects I would excitely tell my friends about them. They would not have to ask. Not to mention I currently live in an area where there are zero single LDS men.
Anyways, I have to agree with my friend Candice, 2008 is a great year. As much as I may complain about being in TN, living with my parents, etc, I know I am exactly where I'm suppose to be at this point in my life. I tried to fight it for a long time but sometimes you are put in places you least expect and least want. For what reason I do not know but I know it is right. Life is a journey and sometimes you feel lost but as long as you rely on the Spirit you will be okay.

This is Lindz.... You're right, all that matters in life is finding someone who will keep those covenants!!! Of course they need to be funny too. And pro-active. And good with kids. And a good kisser. You definitely meet the criteria (well I don't know about the kissing part!). Maybe LDS guy #2 will be worth your time.

I think there might be more than just being a covenant keeper...I mean, you have to want to be near them!Don't get me wrong, covenants are great.

No, I agree but that is really important. I would say the most important thing! But ofcourse they can't be repulsive.
