For Single Women Only: Receive The Gift Of Love This Holiday

By: Margrit Harris

There is love waiting for you. Sure, it's a little different than you might expect, but a whole lot more than you ever imagined.

No it's not the usual, "Give to get" "It's better to give than receive" rubbish.

How many times have you heard a trite phrase like that? And, how many times have you just wanted to strangle the person who threw it at you, when you are facing yet another empty holiday?

According to Brandy at Singles Station[1] in Tulsa Oklahoma there are between 20 and 40 women signing up for their dating service each week. There are 24,152,000 women without a companion in the age range of 20 - 44 alone reports the 2003 Government Census data. Of course some of these are surely in live-in relationships. However, even if that accounts for half, that would still leave 12 million women. That's a lot of need for love!

Not too long ago in a resort hotel I stopped by the business center. Two women in different booths were perusing personal ads and responding to them. Several hours later when I came by again, the same two women were still at it. Millions of women seek love in this two dimensional manner every day!

Just the way it is nowadays? No, it doesn't have to be like this.

Unconditional love and absolute loyalty can be yours in a very tangible way. Okay, it doesn't come with sex, but peace of mind and a full heart are definitely included when you allow a furry companion into your life.

There are 264,060 pets looking for homes on Petfinder.com[3] the country's largest adoption list. They have cats, dogs, and exotic small and large creatures just waiting to give love.

A pet can truly fill an empty heart. During a rather difficult time in my life I was blessed to find a mere bag of bones and fur with a very loud meow. This tiny kitten filled a big hole in my heart as she became a faithful, playful and constant companion.

This year alone 12,744 pets didn't find homes and have been destroyed according to PAWS of Tulsa[4]. In 2004 this shelter took in 15,015 dogs and cats and the majority (13,735) were euthanized. Now if we multiply that by all the cities across the nation - - The numbers get really staggering! This means we fail the animals brought to our shelters.

Here is the picture: There are 12 million women in need of companionship and 264,060 pets needing to give their love away. Come on ladies, you better hurry to pick yours and get ready to receive the gift of love in a different, yet satisfying way this holiday season.
