Simplicity:
...to wake up and know the person you love is waking up next to the wrong person every day
but you still hope that they're happy even if it's not with you?
Or wanting someone you know is physically beside someone else every night?
I suppose it doesn't feel as bad for the person who isn't alone.
Sometimes I wonder do men and women ever sit back and really evaluate themselves and their lives?
Or whether they consider what would actually make them happy and not just the people around them?
It seems like the easy way out is never truly the easy way...
at least not for both parties involved.
So today, my question is this: When do we realize that trying to make it work is only necessary when something better doesn't seem to exist and how do we proactively solicit the "right" protector of our hearts?
Because I know the past is a fluid concept running with low viscosity through our every day decisions I have learned to accept that it can not and will not be changed. We simply have the future to look forward to and should not turn our heads to opportunities that present themselves in the most obvious of shapes and forms.
Do you know how hard it is to give into your hearts unmatched power with regard to loving someone else with every part of you no matter how much logic is smacking you around and telling you to run away while you still have the chance?
How hard is it for someone to admit their true emotions and accept that in the future she may be left with less than what she started with?
It's unbelievably difficult! Damn near impossible to live a life in which one reverts back to a time without the most evident precursor to a happy future.

...To lay next to one while thinking of another? To share "couple moments" with a great girl but who ultimately may not be the one that's meant for you? To fight your natural instinct constantly and fervently? Yes I do know how hard it is and I knew prior to the decision how hard it would be. But I also knew God only puts us through difficult things that we can handle. I know 'that which does not kill us only makes us stronger'.Doing what's best for others is the epitome of selflessness. Its the creed by which the "reasonable person" doctrine was developed to follow. And with that said when one makes a decision there will always be people who are better off and people who are worse off; but the compromise is making the decision that benefits the majority of the people involved. Many times that requires doing one of the hardest things a man will have to do- deny his own happiness. What makes us men is not doing what we want to do, its doing what we have to do- that which encompasses the greater good for greater number of people.
Yes its unbelievably difficult, damn near impossible- but "difficult takes a day & impossible takes a week".
