What do you like best about being single?

[Demetria]

There are quite a few things about singlehood that you can never again capture in any other phase of life.

It's a spark...there's just something uniquely cool about getting to know yourself without any other influences or responsibilities.
You can just be you, learn about yourself, and grow into who you are.

So what do you like best about being single?

What I like best about being single is being able to learn about "Me". Now that I am in my 30's a little more settled I am able to now focus on the things I need to work on before the Lord sends me my eternal mate. I can truly say I LOVE what I have discovered about myself. I can finally say "I am in love with me".

That is the best, Lakia, to be able to say "I love me".
You know, there are so many women who still haven't discovered that they have a right, a God-given right, to love themselves.
It's a requirement before marriage or any relationship...

I would hope more women can discover what you have.

BEING single is not a curse from God. For me to be single is such a blessings though I am looking forward to be in marriage one day. I enjoy my fellowship time with the Lord. I have no specific time I pray in a day. i am free to do ministry without feeling guilty because someone needs my attention. Oh I love it at night when all people are sleeping the Lord will start downloading things in my spirit and I just waku-up start listening while i am writing,. I do attend conferences as well.

What I like about being single is that you spend quality time with the Lord because there is no-one to give attention to. its a gift to be single if you want to be focused in every area of your life. You have the freedom to be you and doing what pleases you. At least I am discovering myself and seeing how I can fit in the society. If you are single don't lock yourself in a room and mourn all day. As for I make friends with people who have strengths in areas that I do not have so at the and of the day I learn a lot and more exposed to a lot of life situations. I freely give to my local church as ministry.
Wow the list is endless.

Alletta, you are right on about singleness. It is a wonderful and prescious time in the life of all women, and it shouldn't be mourned.
I'll admit, I spent a great deal of my time wishing for marriage when I was single...but in the end I learned to enjoy my singlehood before I said "I do" and that made the difference in my outlook.

Making friends and having free time are all wonderful aspects of being single.
