Today, i am just going to start with a simple story. It is a true story. Anyhow...
I have a friend, D. (cant reveal his real identity of course) Known him for quite a while now. Well maybe a couple of months. One day, we were talking about his fiancee and he told me that she was the best thing that happened to him. And well my curious trait acted up and i asked him "Why?". Perhaps it was the cynical side of me. He started to tell me how perfect his fiancee was and how he felt frustrated when she was not around. "She calms me down," he said. I asked him how he knew she was right for him and he replied " She will be the one i go home to, i can see myself with her years from now,". Part of me questioned that. "How could love like this still exist in this world?" And then i realised that a person need a partner who shared the same sentimentsl. The one who wants to mutually be commited and work towards a wonderful relationship. Maybe in a weird cosmic manner or perhaps just pure luck, D found the one.
Or maybe some people will have that kind of relationship while others will never have it. "Legends" have us believed that when we meet the one, we will know. It might be a wink and a smile -Harry Connick Jr. It might just be a touch. But what if we never know? What if we will never have that kind of love? What if it is just a zero sum game that deceived us in the beginning?
Even if we are brave enough to knock on the door, will it ever open?
Wishing everyone a Happy Valentine's Day.
