ME IN PERSPECTIVE

I am a confused man when it comes to the issue of relationships. I do not really know what I want, I have been trying to make up a list of what I want in a lady but my head hasn’t been able to come up with something tangible. I have been in a couple of relationships but I have had to call it quits for no genuine reason(s). I bet I hate relationships lasting for so long. I bet you are thinking I have a problem but before you jump to conclusions, I read this article by Wole Oguntokun ( this guy makes sense to me with every single article he writes on relationships) in the Weekend Guardian…his (woles) column is tagged “the girl whisperer” and finally I got the description of myself.
Actually, I think there would be a lot of us out there and guess what we are….”we are children of the wind”. We detest commitments (in relationships) for now, we hate being tied down to one person for so long, we hate stagnancy, we love change so much and we like going on in life knowing that there are actually people out there who really care for us and love us the way we are.
But is there a problem with us?? Definitely not, Wole has assured a whole lot of us out there that there is not a single problem with us ( I don’t know if he’s one of us, guess you can ask him about that). I think for every man out there, there are women and men simply pick a woman from that distinct sect that pleases them, some men even go on to pick more than one (called Polygamy).
But for us “children of the wind”, we have our match(es). They are called “Wind Catchers”. I hear wind catching isn’t something you learn, I hear it is inborn and as it is with any other talent or skill, it is developed even further with time.
This has given me some consolation, that someday, somehow, somewhere, that “wind catcher” of mine would come and catch this “drifting” wind of mine. I hope I would be able to recognize her when she comes along and that she would be much more than I am expecting.
I also hope it comes much sooner than am expecting so that this torrent wind of mine doesn’t break any more hearts than it has already done.
Faith consists in believing when it si beyond the power of reason to believe. It is enough that a thing be possible for it to be believed. -------Voltaire
