It has taken me many years to begin to trust again. I find love to be hard because it is uncertain the outcome in regards to a relationship with a man. I think that it is a challenge to give my heart away to a man or to open myself up completely because I have been hurt so deeply before. I think most woman are burdened by the reality that their prince charming may never appear. I find that my life is easier when I do not have so many expectations for myself. I find it rather crippling to buy into the notion that a man will be that "prince I have been dreaming about" for my entire life. A part of me wishes that I could always live in a fairytale because reality is too harsh and frightening. I want to devout all of my positive energy to love without restrictions, reservations, or resentment this time around. I think that my worst enemy is my mind because I can talk myself out of love and into love depending on my mood in the moment. I want to love with an unconditional love and with a non-judgmental love. I do not want to be afraid to share myself with a person even if that means I may not spend the rest of my life with them. Love is a mysterious thing and often misinterpreted. I do not like that I have to ripe a person to shreds in my mind if our relationship does not work out---sometimes people do not fit and that is okay. I commit myself to love whole-heartily.
