Last weekend I was at a bar with some friends. As I was sitting there I saw this guy and girl on a date and I figured it may have been their first date because they both seemed somewhat awkward and uptight at first, so the normal first date behavior (I know I’m creeper status huh?). But I couldnt help but notice that they both had a spark in their eyes that locked on to no one else but each other at the end of the night. It may have just been the few beers consumed but they seemed to have had a real connection.  Which brought me to thinking about connections. Romantic connections in particular and the idea of true love. It is a tough concept to grasp as we have only seen it in movies and cartoons but we seem to be taught the exact opposite in the real world. This is truly a sad fact. I mean I have had my share of broken hearts and I still truly believe in true love. I’m the type that has a deep passion and love for someone in my heart and soul and it shows through my actions. So it hurts extra when I get dumped. But should I give up on this true love concept when all that is missing is someone else’s reciprocative love for me? No! Just because I truly love someone does not mean that they will truly love me back. True love is based on two people loving each other with all of their hearts. Which since I love with all my heart; all that is missing is another heart full of love. That should be achieveable. There are Billions of people in this world so statistically im golden. But what I’m trying to say guys and girls is DON’T GIVE UP! Don’t let some person’s actions in your past affect your future when the right one comes along. Building a fort around your heart is only an answer if you have a spare key to the front door to hand out when someone special comes along. Dont be afraid to let down your draw bridge and let people into your heart, but dont be afraid to kick them back over the wall if they prove to be an unworthy knight in shining armor or princess. One day your prince charming will ride into town or your cinderella will be back for her glass slippers. I mean you know girls and their shoes haha. Just know that one day you will find your own version of true love!
