"What if you do not find love, what's your plan B?" Diana asked innocently while we were having a conversation about how we want our lives to be when we grow older.
"Hmmm, that's a very thoughtful question, I've always thought there's someone out there for everyone...don't think I'll need a plan B though" I chuckled while I replied to her question.
"You know, life doesn't always go as planned, so I felt you should be making an alternate plan in case it doesn't work out perfectly," Diana kept persuading me not to put my eggs in one basket and after a moment I began to reflect on our discussion.
"Life is truly uncertain, what if I truly do not find love?" I whispered and chuckled loudly, "Hey Diana, I got a plan B,".
" Louisa, what's your plan B?" Her eyes were wide open while she adjusted her position to hear my next plan.
"I'll be a nun," I was interrupted by Diana's laughter, "A What?" She asked in sarcasm.
"A nun, why are you making mockery of me? Aren't you the one who told me to devise an alternate plan?" I folded my arms in silence as I watched her laugh at me. "You're silly Diana, hold on, I'll just dedicate my life to God and serve him for the rest of my life, don't even laugh at me again," I said playfully and piled her lightly.
"Well, that's not bad in itself, it's just a very wild plan, coming from you Louisa, you love Love, you love kids, you love everything that comes with marriage, that must be a really tough plan to execute you know?" Diana's comment started to get to me as deep down I was a bit afraid of not finding love, "Would I love to be a nun?" I began to wonder.
"Okay, Diana how about you, ever thought of a plan b if your plan A doesn't work out?" I threw the question back at her.
"Career-wise, yes, my mom always told me to learn a craft aside from my educational qualification, and you know I studied Law, if eventually, I don't get a good job, I'll fall back to baking cakes, I have a knack for catering right from the outset and so I am already learning it via Youtube," I loved how self-sufficient Diana was, I hardly hear her talk about relationships and that baffled me.
"Do you ever think of love at all? marriage and all?" I asked her yet again.
"Oh, maybe I should be the one with a nun plan after all, it's not like I do not fancy love, I think I have that planned already," I interrupted her "Oooh, tell me about it!"
"Haha, adopt cute babies and just live my life girl!" Her response took me off my seat, "huh? I said that you're self-sufficient, okay good for you, now that we both have a plan B for relationships can we now dress up for our hang-out, just maybe our better half will be waiting for us,"
"I knew that you could never be a nun, haha," she stood up and headed to the room to dress up while I began to laugh, "I just hope love finds me though because it would be a tough ordeal," I accompanied her to the room as we got dressed ready for our girls hang out like we always did every Saturday evening, it was one of the best evenings to have a scary conversation about the realities of life.

Hahahaha. In love you either have all the plans in the world or you have no plans at all. Fate sometimes plays with us and we have to resort to a plan we never thought of, plan Z. Cheers.
Hahaha, yeah right life isn't certain you know. Thanks for your warm visit.
Abraham Lincoln said no matter what you do, always have a contingency plan. It’s good to have another plan to fall back on if the original plan does not materialize.
I love how they made it a light hearted discussion.
That's right, thanks for stopping by.
👏 Keep Up the good work on Hive ♦️ 👏

Lol, I hope you ladies stop at plan A, everyone deserves love, it is a beautiful thing, although life can have even better plans, I don't consider any situation I find myself as worse, I think of it as making lemonade out of lemons.
Yeah, we need to make lemonade when life offers us lemon, thanks for coming around
Thanks for having me.
Nun? 🤣🤣🤣
I think everyone has said it before that they would be nuns because of similar situations but we never mean it.
#dreemerforlife
Lmao, you know the drill. Thanks for visiting.
You’re welcome
Good post. We all feed our souls in different ways. I find love all around me. Even physical love can exist in infinite levels. My hope is that you have community and opportunity to fulfill your true self.
Thanks for your kind comment.❤
I just remembered that I once said I was going to be a Reverend Father, but as I grew older, that decision became obsolete.
#dreemerforlife
Lmao, such is life. Thank you for your time here.
Things won't always work out the way we want them to, which is why we should always create a plan B.
Everyone deserves to be loved. Nuns made their decision way back not because love didn't work out for them but because they were led by the spirit, the zeal and passion was there as well.
#Dreemerforlife.
Yeah, life doesn't always go as planned. Thanks for stopping by.
Do you know I do think about plan b. What if I do not find love? I am not in a haste anyways but if it is so, I will just adopt a beautiful child and nurture like my own but you know, God's plan is always different from ours but I wouldn't even think of becoming a nun like Louisa. Lol
That was an interesting conversation between them both. Having a plan b is important. That's why we have the letters a-z. If one doesn't work, we try the next.
#dreemerforlife
Yeah, we need to have an alternate plan just in case life gets in the way. Thank you for your beautiful comment.

Thank you so much.
I don't think you really mean it, though. 😂😂
These questions most times are what we are scared of. But, I'm glad your friend was able to make you think about it.
#dreemerforlife
Lol, true, thank you for your time.
🤣 There is truly one person for everybody but then, plan B should not be underrated as life has proven to be very very unpredictable.

💯💯💯, thanks for your warm visit
It's my pleasure
