Better to have Loved and Lost…

I've been looking at both sides of that equation. You know the saying: "Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all." Sometimes I disagree with it. I think I wouldn't be going through all this pain if I had never loved.

But then, I look at the other side. Pain is an important part of the whole love equation. Feeling pain means I am learning something. Sometimes knowledge is painful. I need to feel it and work through it and understand it to get to the other side of the lesson – the side of understanding.

It's what I tell myself when I'm really down. Yes, this sucks. Right now, it really sucks. Some days it sucks more – some days less. But I can keep reminding myself that this suckage is bringing me to something better in the long run, eventually.
