The Bathing Suit and Mr. Right

Today, after five hours of shopping, I finally found a great bathing suit. It's been forever since I've had a two piece, so I looked long and hard for this one. It's a tankini, but it's really cute. The real shocker is that I'd passed over this one multiple times before finally trying it on.

While driving home I had a rather profound thought. What if the Mr. Rights in the world are like that bathing suit? They're right there. They've always been right there, but they don't jump out at you. They sit there quietly and show themselves to you when you're ready to see them.

We try on the crazy ones that we know we'd never buy, the very safe, the fun and flirty but a little too girly, and then finally we see this one and figure "what the heck." Sometimes we need a bit of nudging in the right direction, but in the end, we are confidant in our pick.

So, be open, be alert, and open your eyes to what is right in front of you.
