The reason finding the right person may be taking you longer is that you are looking for something real. There are a small percentage of people who are waking up from their sleepwalking state with the desire to have a true love. If you are reading this, you are one of the few.

Deep down, even though you may ache for someone right now, you know you want it all. You haven’t settled yet and you aren’t going to settle now. Even though your mind is filled with doubt, you do believe he or she is out there. You want to prepare for this great love because you want it to last and be rich and satisfying. You want to make the RIGHT choice.

This is where your investment in learning about yourself will pay off a thousand-fold. By taking a little more time, growing yourself and learning to make more conscious choices, you will avert the emotional and financial problems that stem from getting married to the wrong person too quickly.

Imagine this. You are like the fruit at the top of a tree. The farmers say they are always the sweetest and most delicious. The lower hanging fruits may get picked first, but always before they are ripe by other impatient people who are too lazy to make an effort to go to the top.

You want to find a partner who is willing to climb the tree and bypass the easy catch. He or she is someone who is brave enough to grow just like you and patient as they climb to reach the top to find you. This is sweet, lasting love and the harvest is evergreen.
