So Many Questions So Little Time

How many "love of my life"s do we get? Is there only one? What if the time wasn't right? Or you just weren't ready? If that doesn't work out does it mean anyone else after that is just a form of settling? What if the next person doesn't make you feel "love of my life-y"? Do you dump them and then hope that another "love of your life" will show up? What if they don't?
What if you have someone now who means the world to you and is someone you see yourself loving the rest of your life but you just don't feel as passionate about as you did with the "love of your life"? Is that settling? What if you're engaged and then meet someone who makes you feel all giddy inside? Do you leave your betrothed and love the other person? Do you risk it all? Or play 'safe'?
What if someone proposes to you and you're just not sure? What if you know that this is a great person but maybe not "the one"? What if you get engaged for practical reasons? You know you'll be happy with them but is that enough? Is it really happiness? Is it soul destroying true love?

After all these questions, how does one stay a romantic?

Reminders of Days Gone By

I was pleasantly surprised to discover that Starbucks now has Chocolate Lamingtons. It was like meeting an old friend whom you thought you'd never find again. I miss the old days but things like this remind you that the memory of yesterday will stick to you forever.

That Giddy Feeling

For some time now I've missed feeling all giddy inside. I ended my week really nicely last week with a few moments of giddiness. It didn't turn out the way I wished it did but I'm still grateful for remembering how it feels to not being able to wipe that silly grin off my face even if it was just for a day.

You may not know who you are, but thank you all the same.
