You Can't Hurry Love....

No...you just have to wait! Love don't come easy, its a game of give and take.... How many heartaches must I stand?

It is autumn, a season of change. A season that we slow down. And its difficult sometimes.

A season of change. Change, even good change, can cause loneliness. The game of love can cause loneliness. As the leaves change color...going from greens to reds to oranges and yellows...crisps leaves falling down emptying our trees, fewer people walking about, things changing all the time for everyone, the loneliness sets in.

Love don't come easy...but I keep on waiting, anticipating....
I keep waiting, as the season waits to go dormant.

Yet you don't want to hurry love, you don't want to get into a relationship that is clearly not right because that can be worse. A hurried love can be draining and lonelier than being alone.

As difficult as it seems to be, sometimes I feel that my life pops things up at the times that I need them - such as taking my beloved Stella to the vet. Putting her and her needs first, which in turns puts someone else and their "needs" second, because I don't have the time...the energy....to give to them. Since I barely know them, why would they come first?

You can't hurry love, though you can love those you already have in your life. And love them all the time. Even through the changes. Through the changes of the seasons. Through their changes, through....

Through till you find more love.
