Doing that. Going there.

There is absolutely no conceivable way that I am going to waste this singleness. You better believe I'm taking advantage of my current status. I refuse to be that future married person who constantly looks back, wishing they could have "done that" or "been there."

No. I'm doing that.
I'm going there.
It's happening while I'm able.
Whatever "it" is.

I know there is no possible way I can cover everything, but I'm not wasting a moment and that will be enough.

I have decided to make a list of things I want do in my singleness.
A list of goals, dreams and whatever I decide deserves to be on a list. The list doesn't have to be things I can ONLY do when I'm single but just that I can properly dedicate my time to while being single.

So, the best time to start this list is now....

• Get involved at a nursing home or assisted living home, whether playing piano for the residents or just visiting with them (or both).
  Why waste a single moment? Such beautiful people with such incredible insight on the world, and they don't deserve to be lonely or neglected.
• Get to know the female children and teens placed in my life on a personal level, be there for them and love them.
  It is my responsibility as a woman who follows Jesus to find those who I can disciple and to disciple them.
• Find a godly, female mentor.
  It is also my responsibility as a woman who follows Jesus to find someone who can disciple me and keep me accountable in my walk with God.
• Find a job that I love, and be a friend and testimony to my coworkers. Be a light by my work ethic.
  The world is my mission field.
• Travel. I don't care where and I don't care how.
  As long as I have the resources and the physical capability, I am seeing this world that my Father has created. It doesn't have to be everywhere, it just has to be anywhere. Also, I intend on spreading Jesus everywhere I go.
• Minister to people that are least ministered to.
  Orphans, widows, the poor, the rich, the middle class... I don't know who all of these people are yet, but I'm finding them and, if I am able, I am sharing Jesus' love with them.
• Learn to cook & sew well.
  Because these are fantastic skills, and I want to have them.
• Get in shape.
  Jog. Sprint. Crunch. Lift.... learn the names of the other things I need to do to get in shape...
• Climb as many mountains as I can on the East Coast.
  And then watch "The Sound of Music," because we all know the song "Climb Every Mountain" will eternally be stuck in my head.
• Visit the West Coast.
  Because I never have.
• Go back to Lebanon.
  Because it's a place that I love.

That's what I have so far. What are your ideas?
