Love is a losing game

Except I don’t think it is.  Love isn’t easy, sometimes love sucks.  But we can’t live without love.

Sometimes I question whether it really would be easier to stay alone but I think that is avoiding the vulnerability you will inevitably experience entering into a new relationship; it’s avoiding the roller coaster of emotions trying to work out where it is going and if you can trust again.  But I know that I want to try.

I could stay alone and focus on my son, enjoy my friendships and be grateful for everything in my life that is positive, because boy do I have a great life, but I can’t help feel there will be a void.  A different kind of love that we all seek.

I still believe in the magic, the excitement and the passion.  I want to find my best friend that I can share everything with, the one I can be myself with, and can trust with mine and my son’s life.  I don’t know how long that will take, but I’m willing to try and stay patient.

Love isn’t a losing game, it’s just not an easy game.  But nothing in life is easy and sometimes you have to work at it, no matter how difficult it feels at times.

They say good things come to those who wait.  I do believe that but I also believe that great things come to those who deserve it.  For those of you out there that have ever experienced hardships or difficulties, stay positive and look forward, your time will come.
