A month ago I posted in frustration about whether God's calling for me was to remain single or to be called to marriage.

Her: If I don't look after my health, oh my goodness, I'd lose myself.
Me: I get it, you're trying to multitask. We all do that.
Her: It's called multi-succeeding .
Me: Interesting! Your name?
Let me know your thoughts!
