Here I sit with a broken heart. The solace I'm trying to find are but temporary. I've recently lost a dear dear friend. A companion for almost 16 years of my life, only to be realized as such for the last 4 years or so. So little is any amount of time to grieve when we've lost one so close to our hearts. And yet, we must carry on. C'est la vie, is it not?
But now I must face a choice. Making choices. One of the many banes of my existence. This or that? Who is the better looking? Who will give more comfort to behold? Do I choose one who is so similar to my previously beloved? - or should I choose someone who will help me forget my previous life and help me move on to my next love? Who will be the knight in shining armor to sweep me off my feet and be my companion for the next two decades?
There is no scope for love at first sight when there are so many other qualities to weigh. Such is the cruelty of making choices. Why could not we be partnered with the one who is meant to be when we were created so that we did not have to make such cruel choices?! Crueler still when we must make such choices whilst we grieve!
This post sounds too Shakespearean. Does anyone else think so?
Either way, here's another chance for all you out there (those that I can reach) to win another brownie. What am I on about? This one is easy.
