We all travel day to day through this crazy thing called life. We have ups and we have downs. Sometimes the ups make having the downs more bearable. Sometimes the ups are so good that when the downs come back, it's horribly painful. I think all any of us want is to be happy. I know that's all I want and I know most everyone I know that's all they want too. Occasionally you meet someone who has an instant impact on your life and your out look. Sometimes those people will walk back out again as fast as they came in. We never really know how things will go or how things will turn out. I'm having one of those weeks where I met someone truly amazing....it terrifies me, yet at the same time it makes me deliriously happy. Why can't anything in life ever be simple? I guess we wouldn't learn the lessons we need to learn if it was. I don't usually deal really well with the whole "just go with it, see what happens" outlook on life. I do try...honestly...but I guess my real problem with that is that, at least in my experience, the other shoe always drops, the good goes away, the good is replaced by unbearable pain sometimes. I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels this way, but honestly, I'm just so tired of being hurt. Tired of opening my heart to people and things and having it broken. I guess my real question here is....how many times can we really survive a broken heart?
