Sunday Night Singles Dance at Grand Rapids

By Mara Hernandez-Capili

It is fun to be single. Why? It's because single people are free, they have no responsibilities and are not motivated to work hard and sweat up for labor because of a mouth to feed and a family to raise. Every Sunday the entire single ladies and gentlemen at Grand Rapids, Michigan find time to have fun and socialize, to celebrate great friends and awesome merrymaking.

Being single is care-free life, I buy the things that I want and shamelessly max out on my credit card. What is then a much better lifestyle? Being single or being married with responsibilities? As a married woman and a mother of a beautiful 7 month old princess, I used to think that being single is a much better lifestyle. I used to stay up so late at night and be outdoors until the wee hours of the morning. I used to break on my curfews and stay with my boyfriend for a weekend getaway out of town.

"The Life" came to an end when Maiah came into my life. Although I earn a lot more compared to what I used to before, all my money goes to buying for her milk and other necessities. Times became more valuable and golden as I frantically clear out and manage my daily tasks just so I could hold her more and play with her. No more long nights partying at techno-sounding bars and no more crazy AmEX sword fighting over late dinners with my girlfriends. Lingerie and Beauty Section of malls no longer excites me as I often find myself trooping to Infant toys in my sweats sans makeup.

I do enjoy married life. Nights are spent to the company of the 2 most important persons in my life. My Don and my Maiah.
