as the saying goes, "No man is an island", . THis is very true. Men (in general both men and women) are not complete being alone. Why? Because we are created with a biological desire. When the other fall, there is someone to lift him or her up.

Maybe in some cases, you choose to be single, but i believe that you will really regret being alone in your life. I am single but i am praying always for a future mate. :D :D :D :D

I had uncles who never married. Some died early of disease or accident, and were not able to get married. I asked one of my uncles, my Dad's oldest brother out of a lot of siblings why he didn't get married. I was a little guy when I asked him, and I was just curious. He told me that he didn't have time to get married. He was driven. He had to get things done almost before it was possible to get them done. I also ask him if he ever got sick, and he told me the same thing, that he didn't have time to get sick. He died when he was about 56 years old of a severe stroke. He didn't feel well the last little while he lived. I'm not sure whether he worked himself to death, or didn't eat correctly or what happened?

I would not want to be alone. I think God made us to be together, and like you say, Crisi, when one is down, there is another to lift that person up, and that is important. :D :D :D :D

Yes, I agree, we chose. We chose either God's ways or our ways, and God's ways are best. :D :D :D :D
