Defy The Impossible

Someone once said, ~Love is a strong wind, easy to spell, difficult to define, impossible to live without.~ Oftentimes a person completely shuts love out of his or her life due the fact, that in one's own mind, its impossible to find or have it show up on one's doorstep, so to speak. Yet, no matter how many times one faces sorrow and/or utter disappointment, we continually put ourselves, as well as, our heart out there. Although the human heart is considered the most fragile part of the human body, in a emotional sense, it can most definitely withstand a lot of punishment. Essentially, there are so many impossibilities concerning love that it can make a person throw in the towel and remain single for the rest of his or her life.

For its impossible to verbally describe how a person feels for another because the words that you want to say come out all wrong and you wind up sounding and looking like a complete dork. For there is so much going on inside one's head that its hard to really focus on one thought which can cause a person to say things that he or she may regret or feel absolutely embarrassed about. We've all been in a situation whether alone with someone one is interested in or hanging with friends, we can be intensely focused trying to figure out what to say to that particular person. For its when a question is directed towards us by him or her, comedy will ensue as one will say the first thing that pops into his or her mind, which is usually something totally off the wall.

If you think about it, its impossible to love someone without first having love for yourself. Let me ask you this question, are you somewhat self-conscious about your appearance that it affects your self-esteem? Women, more so than guys, are caught in the appearance aspect of potential relationships, which unfortunately is caused by guys who soley base relationships on the superficial. Subsequently, it can cause women to wrap themselves in a metaphorical cocoon. In turn, if a guy, who is absolutely genuine tells her, she is absolutely beautiful she'll refuse to believe it. One life/love lesson is that if you like who you are and don't feel the need to change then that person will love you just the way you are.

You know, its most definitely impossible to trust your feelings for someone you have only met once and have only known for a short period of time; but one's heart skips a beat whenever you think of him or her. One can say its simply a phase that he or she is going through, an initial crush which will wear off as time passes on; but it doesn't. For the question can be asked do you trust your own feelings enough to tell that person how you feel and run the risk of being rejected, which is not a good feeling for anyone to go through; or do you hold back knowing that the chance to tell that person may never come again. Its a tough decision indeed as their is an inner struggle going between what one is thinking and what one is feeling.

In retrospect, when it comes to potential relationships, its impossible to know how that person may or may not react. For it one's of those unknowns that a person will never be prepared for as the decision rests in his or her hands. Initially, there are so many impossibilities that are associated with love, there is one absolute possibility a person can rely on and that is the love you have for a person will never fade even though he or she may never love you back. Ultimately, when it comes to love, falling love, or figuring out the love you have for a person, you just have to defy the impossible and a song that best reflects this sentiment is The Look by Ryan Tedder.
