A light dinner (or lunch) and a walk by some water, filled with meaningful conversation.

To wait! Don't rush. Don't get too intimate too quickly. Look beneath the surface and find out who this person is, make sure there's a basic compatibility there before getting too involved. It's easier to get into a relationship than it is to get out, obviously, so make sure you can become (and remain) good friends before becoming anything beyond that.

Being a part of God's last-days remnant on earth. Being different, being called to deliver a distinctive message and not being afraid of doing that, though it may mean standing alone or meeting opposition at times. The truth isn't always popular. Romans 12:18 applies, but so does Acts 4:20.

Buying a house in the country, and moving towards becoming more self-sufficient. Learning to grow a good portion of my own food. Becoming more and more like Jesus in character. Becoming a better teacher and showing more of His ways in the classroom, even while operating under the constraints of employment at a secular public university.

II Chronicles 20:20 -- "Believe in the Lord your God, so shall ye be established; believe His prophets, so shall ye prosper."

I've thought many times that perhaps the Lord has it in the cards for me to remain single for the rest of my time here on earth -- Jesus did, Paul did. There's nothing wrong with that path. (1 Cor. 7:8) But then, it's also occurred to me that maybe He doesn't want that. So why not put out some feelers, and see how He directs things.
