"It's better to have loved and lost then never had loved at all" - Anon.
I struggle now more than ever to find the truth in that. That quote could actually be applied to any relationship in one's life. I think the writer meant that it is better to experience a love so deep and all that comes along with it, than to go through life clueless that such feelings exist. Everyone knows how to feel and experience love. When you open your heart to someone there are no boundaries, you are blind to the possibility of being hurt and you open the inner most depths of your soul to this overwhelming feeling. You cannot get enough of this person that you are magnatized to. It seems as though you have become one person and every thought that passes through your mind reflects upon your dreams and memories of this person. Your trust that thay will always be there is as niave and innocent as a childs trust. You come to the realization that the word "love" cannot even begin to express the feeling that you have inside. There are no words. Sometimes in life I believe that there are happy endings, where bonds are never broken and two people that became one will always be. Sometimes we have to let people go, even though you cant bear the thought of it. Sometimes we realize that the love grew and took over your heart based on mere dreams and fantasies. You have to look at your self in a mirror and realize that you are your own person again, just you. You feel like it would be easier to Preside over the entire country than make a decision to let someone go. Then when you finally do you feel empty, lost, numb and know you will never be the same again. I believe now that I would rather not know that such feelings exist than feel the pain of losing your one and only true love.
