Kissed by a Frog

Have you ever seen a couple so beautiful and say WOW they belong together? But was it just because they 'looked' like they belonged together? Or maybe you even knew a little bit about them and felt like they were a power couple. Both intelligent, bound to produce beautiful kids, great families, blah, blah, blah... I've been a party in one of those couples but guess what? We only looked like we belonged together! Three years of trying because we both did the match maker calculations in our head and we 'thought' we belonged together. Consequently everything about us went wrong. He wasn't my prince charming.

After a not so recent heart to heart with a dear friend and a recent reminder blog, I realized that the ones that we calculate up to being 'our type' aren't always the ones to make us happy. Your Prince charming could truly be a frog. Not in that he's not good looking or intelligent, he just isn't or wasn't the one that you thought you would end up being with or falling head over heels for. Not tall enough, not dark or light enough, little bit of a belly, not in the profession of your choice, family doesn't like you, different religion, different races, different habits, different hobbies but nonetheless he is what your heart desires.

We are blessed in mysterious ways with the people that are brought into our lives and sometimes we have no choice in matters of the heart. Being kissed by a frog is no small thing in that who knows who that frog may be, if he will ever come, and/or if he will ever truly be your prince charming. All we can do is sit back and let God write our love story and be thankful for the opportunity to have loved and be loved.
