Is forever a possibility?
So many people fall in love and either get married or become a permanent couple and within a short time, for whatever reasons, they fall apart and they become just a memory of what they used to be. Everyone has someone in the past that they would soon like to forget. What was the final straw that made you stop believing in forever?
I don't think forever is an impossibility. I don't think forever gives up on us but that we give up on forever. Relationships are a dime a dozen now days and we have the mentality that if it doesn't work with the person that we are with then there are plenty of other fish in the sea. What happened to the forever's that were alive in the days of our parents and grandparents?
Does anyone even work on their relationships anymore? Everyone at some point has had a relationship where looking back they realize they could have done more. People play the if only game. "If only" I had done this or that it would have worked. No, not true. I am a firm believer that if you are meant to be with someone then life will work out to where you are together. Yes, you might have been able to do more or do things different but sorry, if it's not meant to be then it wouldn't have worked anyway.
The forever mentality should always stay alive in your soul.
I've had the good and the bad relationships and although none of them lasted forever I can't regret any of them. I think they all have made me what I am today. Everything in life happens for a reason and it's up to you to find the lesson that life is trying to teach you.
I see people all the time just giving up because they say it's too hard or its too this or too that. What? Isn't this the person that you said you wanted to be with forever? Forever is not a couple of years. Forever is just that. It's FOREVER. Why throw forever away because the money is tight or he gets home late for work or the kids are driving you to the brink of insanity?
It takes a lot to stay together forever. Love, commitment, trust, faith, and patience are just a few of the important things that you need. Don't mistake lust for love and don't toss out the "I love you" until you know that you certainly do.
What are your ideas on forever?
