Finding “The One”

In today’s world, the word “loyalty” is warped. This generation doesn’t know the true meaning and importance of a committed relationship, although we may think we do we have nothing more than a foggy perspective.

We take our significant others’ for granted, we cheat, lie, fight and disrespect them. We tear them down rather than build them up. We put them on the same level as everyone else when they should be put on a pedestal.

Every relationship I had been in BEFORE THIS ONE was unhealthy and quite frankly, miserable. But I don’t regret any of them because they made me realize what I deserved was much more than I was receiving. I learned so many lessons and grew from each one I was in, making me the woman and girlfriend I am today.

01/22/18 was the day that Shawn asked me to officially be his, and I was (and still am) the happiest girl in the world.

He has shown me that “the one” is out there, you just have to stop looking in all the wrong places, and maybe even stop looking in general. I wasn’t necessarily looking for a relationship when he came along, I had actually almost given up on them. But, that’s where I was doing something right, NOT looking. From previous experiences, when you “look” for a relationship, you are so consumed in finding someone that you settle. That is one of the worst things you can do. Whatever you do, DO NOT SETTLE.

Shawn has taught me that loyalty and commitment is still out there. He has taught me so many other things like patience, kindness, and most importantly, happiness.

No relationship will be perfect. There will be fights, arguments, disagreements, and ups and downs, but you can’t have good days without the bad. Take something out of each of these, learn lessons, grow as a person and as a couple.

Also, make sure you keep the love alive. Just because you may “have” the person, doesn’t mean you need to stop trying to win them. The little things mean just as much, if not more than the big ones. Be kind, love with all your heart and most of all, stay HAPPY ❤️

A Little About Me

WELCOME to my BLOG, and my LIFE 😊

I’ve been wanting to do this for awhile, make a blog, share my adventures, tell stories, be apart of this creative community. BUT, I haven’t had a chance to get to it until now.

To start off, I’d like to introduce myself. That’s how it usually goes right? Or else your audience really has the slightest clue as to who you are, and not an idea about what to expect from you. Well, this should help..

Okay everyone, here it goes. My name is Jordynne, I’m 20 years old, from a small town in the middle of Maine. I spend most of my time getting my education at the University of Augusta and playing basketball for the Women’s Basketball Team there, but when I have free time I’m either spending it with my mom and dad, my boyfriend Shawn and his son Carson, or somewhere in the great Maine outdoors.

I enjoy days at camp, hiking, camping, traveling (almost ANYTHING outdoors) and spending time with the ones closest to me. I really like to express my creative side as much as I can, so this should be a great outlet for that to happen.

I am an only child (spoiled brat, right?) You could say I’m very fortunate. My two loving, supportive parents always gave me everything I needed, most of what I wanted (to this day) and I couldn’t ask for better. They’ve been there for me every step of the way, and I am forever grateful for them.

My boyfriend Shawn and his son Carson also mean so much to me. You could say I’m dating my best friend. He is so supportive and caring, I am definitely the luckiest girl in the world.

What should I expect out of this blog you may ask?

I plan to make this as fun and enjoyable as I possibly can. Full of stories from my fun-filled life, adventures (including many photos), inspiration, motivation and everything in between. Sometimes divulging into someone else’s life for a little bit can take some stress out of yours, that’s what I’m here for. 💖
