Diva Living Today

The art of compromise.   There are similarities to looking for that perfect house and your hubby to be.  Every diva have a ginormous wish list.  Of course every girl would want the house or the man of her dreams.  Four bedrooms (1 guest room, and 1 office, 1 walk in closet absolutely diva fabulous and yes, one bedroom for the bride and groom).  The hubby to be, oh you would like him to be handsome, educated, have a good job and of course eyes only for you.  But at the end of the day, every diva has to choose the house that has most of the things on her wish list or at least some of the items that were high on “the must have” section. 

There are women who feel that you shouldn’t have to settle for the not so perfect house, or not so perfect spouse.  I agree to an extent.  The million dollar home is out of my budget and Denzel Washington is already married.  What’s a girl to do?  Every major decision we make will have an effect on our life, so we must make them carefully and prayerfully.  This is not a “one size fits all” deal – not by any means.  But it is and will always be a matter of compromise.  No house or person is perfect.  Inspections and conversations are necessary.  We have to do our due diligence.  It starts with knowing ourselves and knowing what we don’t want, just as much as what we do.  What are the deal breakers?  Three bedroom may be just right for one person, while someone needs 4 bedrooms and that’s before the children come along.  There are lots of questions to ask and you need to get answers so you could make an informed decision.  Some of those answers have to come from you.

At the end of the day, we have to come to a decision – we have to make the best choice given numerous factors in our lives.  But when it is all said and done, we have to make that house a happy home and that relationship a strong marriage partnership.  So, unfortunately diva’s this time I only have questions, not answers.  But answering your questions truthfully and honestly is the best way for you to get closer to your dream home or hubby.  Understand what will make you happy and then… go for that.  But just know, comprise is always necessary.  It’s a natural part of life.
