Somebody Like You

Someone once said, ~Opening your heart to someone isn't always the easiest thing to do, but giving your heart to someone is about a million times harder.~ If you think about, its within our own heart that we can feel safe, secure, and where you can truly be yourself. Undeniably, there will be always be someone looking into your heart and wishing that he or she sees himself or herself in there. Its an aspect of love that will never change because its a place that guys and/or girls want to be and only one person can fit perfectly in it, so to speak. For its the attention one receives that can inevitably leave one trying to read what's really true or false in that person's own heart.

Without a doubt, a person can have doubts as to why there is a certain amount of attention directed one's way which can have you closely gaurd your heart. Its those doubts that can lead you to ask three question or more depending on how big they are and reasons, if any, as to why your not throwing caution to the wind. Those three questions that a person can ask himself or herself are: 1.) Does that person have an interest in me because I am easily approachable? 2.) Is that person only interested in me because of how I look? 3.) Is that person interested in me for me and not with me just for ulterior motives? Whatever question you have trust your own instincts and the answers will reveal themselves in due time.

Yet, in the meantime, you simply go with the flow even the feelings you have for that particular person may be unclear to understand. However, its not being able to understand that makes you a better person which is witnessed by the smile on his or her face. A smile that can represent sunshine beaming down on you to where you actually feel that person's love. Its like a feeling of a warm embrace which can tell you there's nothing in this world or the next that you can't handle. Unfortunately, before ever reaching that point of euphoria one must take a few steps back in order to figure out if you both are heading in the right direction or merely going around in circles.

Essentially, what it comes down to is trust; the trust that you have within yourself to take that so called leap of faith for love and completely let go of you heart which is a gamble that every person has taken. In some aspect, its like jumping out of an airplane without a parachute and the only that will prevent you from ending up six feet under is having him or her be your cushion and safely catch you. To be perfectly honest, there is no telling if one will get badly hurt or not because quite frankly nobody can ever prepare of how big of an impact you may or may not suffer. Let me ask you this question, is there someone who you have been thinking about lately that you would glady jump out of an airplane for without a parachute on?

Roberta Sage Hamilton said, ~In our deepest moments of struggle, frustration, fear, and confusion, we are being called upon to reach in and touch our hearts. Then, we will know what to do, what to say, how to be. What is right is always in our deepest heart of hearts. It is from the deepest part of our hearts that we are capable of reaching out and touching another human being. It is, after all, one heart touching another heart.~ In retrospect, there will be someone who you'll want to fully open and ultimately giving your love and heart to. In the end, if that person accepts your loving heart you can thank him or her by simply saying its somebody like you that I can now finally feel the way I do and song that somewhat reflects this thought is Somebody Like You by Keith Urban.
