what's your flavor?

Learning to dance salsa has been such an enjoyable experience. Not only do I learn to dance, but I also enjoy the company of fellow novice dancers. Along with that, I meet several men (my age!) who are interested in expanding their horizons. It is so refreshing.

But a thought hit me today. I am attracted to men with Latin flavor. Being around the Hispanic men in class, I feel a rush of intrigue when they speak even a hint of Spanish. Then I remembered that my ex was from Ecuador, and how I thoroughly enjoyed that particular aspect of him--to be able to speak several languages with one being Spanish. As with any remembrance, nostalgia comes rushing in along with the associated feelings.

I suppose I wouldn't mind dating someone not Asian.

The Lord reveals to us what we need for salvation and holy living.

walk by the Spirit

"Love is the key-- Joy is love singing. Peace is love resting. Long-suffering is love enduring. Kindness is love’s touch. Goodness is love’s character. Faithfulness is love’s habit. Gentleness is love’s self-forgetfulness. Self-control is love holding the reigns.”
Donald G. Barnhouse

"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law."
Galatians 5:22-23

A super saint who is a loveless saint is no saint at all.
