As I read this thread...one thing comes to me. Life is not about the destination. It's about the journey.
And yes, I think if you get into your 40's or so and you're still looking for the one, it's hard not to get a little negative around the edges.
BUT...how many loves have you had in your life? I have had a few. And yes, it's not fun when it ends. But it was pretty incredible while it was there. I have been loved by some great men in my life. I loved someone so much it hurt. I have felt so loved that someone would jump out in front of the bus to save me. (and maybe one who would have given me a push into it - hahahaha ) I've been on cloud 9, singing show tunes and seeing a blue sky.
And who knows..maybe that will happen again? Maybe... for both of us.
Oops, looks like I hit 40, still looking, and succeeded in getting negative around the edges. I have had the hurt of loving and losing. I have yet to have the fun of that whole 'pretty incredible' experience of being on cloud 9, singing show tunes and seeing a blue sky with someone who loves me back. Instead I think I got the full value of the pain without any of the gain. Bleh. Would be nice to experience it once and at least get the memories to look back on in my lonely old age.
