someone told me once that if there is one person in a million out there for you, that means you have somewhere in the area of 6500 possibilities! more and more i don't believe that there is just one person who compliments you; rather, i believe that many people compliment you in different ways. your task, then, is to find the person who fits your criteria best and then you have to make a partnership work. and it's not easy. blending personalities together to a common goal can prove to be a rather difficult task. sometimes, too, despite working hard to make a relationship successful can end up taking your life in a different direction. the point is, you just never know.
and then sometimes... you meet people who just seem to work together.
i went for dinner last night with a couple who met when they were about twelve. they were married when she was twenty and he was nineteen (he's six months younger than her, as he gently teases). they've been together now for twenty nine years.
and he still looks at her with love in his eyes. i'm sure they know everything there is to know about each other. they've braved immigrating to a new country. they've got two kids. and while i'm absolutely certain that it is no picnic and that things are never as they seem, i can sense the love that they still share for each other.
i wonder if they've ever thought about being with other people. i wonder if either of them has ever cheated or thought about it. i mean, we all think about it. and as he confesses, if a particular blonde celebrity ever asked him out i know he'd go. i don't think she'd hold that against him, though.
ah well. the point is - love does exist. i'll find it. yup, yup.
