I'm feeling a wee bit philosophical, mushy, or whatever state I'm in that I can't pin point. So I'm going to rant about the topic that seems to be on everyone's mind, the issue that everyone seems to have problem with, the single thing that technology that still can't help to improve, and probably would never be able to: Love.
/It's almost ironic that I'm listening to Courtney Love while writing this. Anywayy.
Is there rules for love? I sometimes wonder when you hear all these relationship "expert" telling people how they should behave in a relationship. All these "trend" you can look for, and all these things you have to do. Days after days you see on MSN singles looking for love (or sex. For some people it's the same thing.), articles offering advice to look for Mr./Ms. Right. You keep thinking something this trivial should be natural for us. We've survived generations after generations, surely we should've got the hand of it now, right?
Okay, so we haven't. Where are we going wrong. If I could answer that question don't you think I should've written a book and earn lots of money now? (And you know how much money you can earn for writing books like that. Ask Dr. Phil.)
I still think it's all to do with the pursuit of happiness. Once you have two people who understand that and work towards the same goal, then it's all set. It's never as easy as that is it? No two people will truly have the same goal, and the same outlook on everything in life. Finding the person most compatible to you becomes the biggest problem.
And then there's the age old problem of loving someone who you know isn't going to get you anywhere. Been there, done that. Why does that happen anyway? Surely you know it's not where happiness lies, yet our heart just kinda stuck to that dream.
And how do we meet that someone? Personally, I think fate would bring you that person, but then again, maybe not. I always oppose to knowing someone for the sake of dating, reason why I tend to only go out with good friends of mine and then leave a big mess. So who's right?
Personally: I don't believe in people changing. Well, at least not changed by someone else. You can change yourself and sometimes that change might even stick and you might even be more comfortable with the new you. But then again, I always just be who I'm most comfortable with. (scary isn't it? Just "Choose who you want to be") If you don't expect anything to change, stand back and look at the picture and can be happy with it, you have yourself a keeper. Don't ever just "settle" because you never know when your perfect match may come by, and if you're "settled" with someone just out of the fear of loneliness, maybe that's your chance of happiness gone.
Well, just my thoughts. Of course if I've known anything about it, I would be out there earning big bucks like Dr. Phil is... :P
