I realise that being in love can have its downsides.
Especially the risk of losing that love, either through time, personal growth, or a shitty curve ball life can throw every now and again.
Whatever the reason, and the feelings of misery that follow, I am often comforted by the look on a single friends face when they meet someone special again. Regardless of everything, we so often take the chance for happiness again - that resilience of the human spirit is astounding.
And if that makes me a sucker - then I'm not alone.
I really used to like the Eagles. When I was in high school I used to listen to them a lot. But then I found so many other types of music, and the Eagles got lost in the mix. More recently I've been thinking about this song; the loss, and the realisation that life goes on.
I never realised how so many artists suffer for their art, and by doing so show us the possibility of dealing with our past, and the feelings that arise from it.
