Sadness

     When your single and have been for quite a awhile you say you’re happy, you say you’ve come to terms with being single, and I think the more you tell yourself that the more likely you are to believe it and I feel like that is truly sad. I wonder though is it possible that the more you tell yourself your happy being alone that it actually makes you a little sadder every day, that it kills just a little bit of hope that you might have to finding that love everyone says is out there waiting for you. For the most part you can fill your life with friends and family and stay busy and put on a happy face however; at some point you have to stop being busy and then you’re alone that’s when the loneliness creeps up, when you get home there is no one to ask how your day went with the girls or how work was. I was told something today from another great friend (I really have so many) that “love will find you when you’re really not looking for it, not when you are just saying you’re not looking for it”.

     The sadness also hits pretty hard for most people when they are laying on the couch watching a movie, or when your feeling sad and just want someone to hold you and sweep the hair out of your face or kiss the tear off your cheek and tell you “Everything will be okay”. As much as you tell yourself you don’t need anyone to complete you to make you happy you’re right you don’t need it, but it helps and it makes life easier; if you can look past the pain enough to let someone in.

The question is; does life feel more complete with someone to hold your hand and walk with you through the trials of life? I think it just might………….. What do you think?
