What are the reasons to love? I mean as I write this I sit and think about how you can give so much of yourself to a person, just to have them throw it in your face or to hurt you.You take a part of yourself and you try to protect it from the past loves and the past hurts and pains. Then you meet this man or woman who seems to make you float on a cloud and who gives you a reason to love again. I mean they give you a reason to trust and to believe in relationships in every aspect. Now, that part of yourself that has been sitting on the shelf locked away has become a whole part again. It terrifies you and you get that feeling in the pit of your stomach again and all the emotions come fluttering to the top.Some will tell you to hell with love, others will say it's the best thing and many will say their only going to hurt you in the end.Well, at some point you have to decide if love is worth the risk or if that person is worth the risk.Many times we give our love to a person who is not worthy of us or our love! We see the signs and we ignore them, thinking that they will go away or they will change. A person will only change when and if they want too change. No matter how much you do for them or how much you give to them, no matter how much you stand by their side or sacrifice for them it won't change them.I truly believe that their is someone out their to love the right person, but I am unsure if that person is out their for me. Me and love haven't been friends in a very long time and I'm unsure if we ever will be anytime soon! I don't think you stay with someone out of guilt, because you have kids, or because you think or feel you can't do any better or just because your ass is too lazy to start over.Everyone deserves to be happy and to have love at all ages. I pray and hold dear to my heart and my faith in God that he will send someone for me eventually. Randomly Yours, Raven Storm
