Brandon Pearce once said, 'To live is to love.' Many people go each day having love, sharing that love, with be it a friend, a companion, or family. It is not until it's gone they realize what they've lost. For some few, they go each day, without that same form of love, yes, they have it from family. However, the love from friends, and companions, is something they strive to reach, as if in search for atonement. This is how I feel, sometimes, as if searching for that final goal, of happiness. As painfully, as it may seem that I need this love, it is something I don't "need", it's something I "want".

Maybe, someone like me someone who is everyone's best friend, someone who knows more then they think, someone who think's like a child, but is wiser then most , doens't need it. I mean, seriously, love is not a necessity in life, but if that's not true, then that would destroy many people's hopes, that one day, they will find that one true love, that soulmate.

Soulmates, do not mean, lovers. It means, forever, be it friends or lovers. Deep inside, amongst, the pain, the happiness, the anger, there lies, that part that is missing, until we find that soulmate, we have that. I once, felt, complete, for a time. However times change, as do people. We must keep moving, let loose the past. It is not until we have found that ground with or without that missing part, that we can find ourselves.

Someone once told me, no matter how much we try to find love, we won't find it, it will find us. I have started to realize that, as much as I try, it's true, I can't find love, it has to find me. However much I feel that maybe if I wasn't the way I am, maybe I'd find someone, but if I deny myself, the truth of who I am, how can something so delicate like love find me, when I don't even know me. I can't let the compassion, the sincerity, the wisdom, the honesty, the truthfulness, get taken away. Yes, everyday, people see others with the wrong person. And yes, we think to ourselves, why that asshole, or why that bitch, why not me..... it's because simply, it's not our time.
I realize this now.... not just the words, but the meaning.... We are alive, but until we LOVE we do not truly LIVE.....
