Rescue Me?

A few weeks ago I was talking to a friend and he had concerns about my dating life.  One of his main concerns was that he felt that I was in need of a knight in shining armor.  His words "because I know that's what you want Amy.  I know you want to be rescued."

Ohhh, my friend, I don't need rescued by any knight or even by Prince Charming.  See this Princess can save herself.  Always have, always will.  Now I'm not saying there hasn't been people in my life that have helped, people who have made me stronger, but things have always came down to my choice and I have never asked anyone to sweep me off my feet or take care of me.

In fact as I sit here most of the people who have helped me most in my life have all been women , not men.  My best friends have been the ones who has stepped in when I needed them most.  Including Jennifer and her dad Neil when I needed rescued from an abusive druggie home in high school and Chantel when I said "I need to leave this town or I'll die loving this boy" in college. 

If I was the type of girl who needed rescued all the time, would any of you really read this blog?  Would I have lost the weight?  Would I have walked away from a loveless marriage?  Would I have grown a successful career and company? NO! I would just be another fat, unhappy wife, in ill fitted mom jeans, trying to put on a smile, acting like nothing was wrong with my life.  I saw my life headed that direction but I saved myself.  I made the change.

I do want a fairytale, but in my story, the Princess will save the Prince, and I only plan on rescuing his heart.

I look like a Princess but I don't need a guy in a stupid metal suit on a horse to make things happen for me.

I know in previous posts I have said I was looking for Superman but not because I want rescued but because I'm Superwoman and I need someone to keep up with me.  I'll post a workout tomorrow everyone!!  Have a great Sunday!!
