Pay The Price

Someone once said, ~I do believe that soulmates do exist. That there is truly someone made for you. But it's still up to you to make the choice if you're going to do something about it or not. We may meet people by chance, but loving and staying with them is still a choice we have to make. And by making that choice we have to make sure that no matter what we're not going to regret it in time.~ If you think about it, the toughest and most difficult choices are made from within our own heart when it pertains to the matter of true love. To love or not to love? Though simple and obvious it may be, those aren't just the only two choices as it goes much deeper to where you have to make critical decisions that are not only hard but complicated as well.

Let me ask you this question, when it comes to falling in love with someone, who you may seemingly have a few things or everything in common for that matter, how do you really know you've even made the right choice in the first place? To be perfectly honest you don't and you have to initially go with what you guy, as well as, your heart is telling you, which makes leading up to the final decision concerning him or her not only mentally but physically exhausting. You have to admit, we all choose to put ourselves through that ordeal even though we don't have to and yet we do anyway because we fall in love with such an attractive personality that its impossible not to love him or her no matter how hard you try.

Oftentimes in the midst of one's inner struggle to make the right and best possible choice within your heart you can become angry, frustrated, resentful, spiteful, full of hate, and/or in denial of how one feels about that certain someone, which can be considered a torturous feeling. When it comes to someone you've grown increasingly fond of you can harbor those feelings and emotions that are floating around somewhere inside to the point hurtful words are said when you speak one on one. On one hand you can decide to feel that way or on the other hand you can simply choose to be grateful that he or she is part of your life even if its not in a romantic capacity and you can still love that person, but not in the way you imagined.

In any case, there comes a point where the decision to close the door to one's heart is based on one's track record in the relationship department or the lack thereof. For it's a hard, as well as, complicated choice, which may or may not affect one's overall demeanor. Without a doubt, there are guys like myself and girls too who are just tired of coming so close to finding true love and yet end up metaphorically walking the empty lonely streets that lead to the boulevard of broken dreams. However, the door to one's heart may be closed but it doesn't necessarily mean it will stay closed forever. For the most part, you just have to know who your friends are as they will help keep you smiling and laughing from the inside out when you need it the most.

Someone said, ~Don't settle for the one you can live with, settle for the one you can't live without.~ In retrospect, we all have the freedom of choice and when it's about deciding who you want to be with it comes down to two choices: 1.) Love someone who makes you happy but inevitably makes you miserable. OR 2.) Love someone who makes you miserable but absolutely makes you happy. In the other words, take the easy or hard way in finding not only your soulmate but the one you truly love as well? In the end, it will always come down to the decision(s) that you have to make on your own and before ever making that choice from within your heart you'll ask yourself, am I ready to pay the price for what I hopefully won't regret later down the road?
