Square 1

Well, I'm back to square one again. Like it says in the song, "I got nobody to call my own." But don't be upset, I put myself in this position. In this bizarre game called 'dating' I'm still learning. A co-worker told me this morning that it is a process, and I really believe that. I truly believe that for some of us, you have to meet several people before we find that one person that we are destined to spend an undetermined amount of time with. This begs the question: Is there really such thing as "the one?" I don't know. If there is, I haven't found her. I have been mistaken on a few occasions. I believe that maybe there is one person for some people. I also believe that we are meant to meet more than one "the one." The purpose is to know that person, to experience the best of that person, to share life with each other, and then move on. People come and go in our lives all the time. At some point, you have to be okay with letting people go. As the Buddhists believe, attachment leads to suffering. With my new philosophy on dating, I am thankful for all of the wonderful experiences I've had with people in my past because I have learned or taken something important away from that relationship that I didn't have before I met that person.
