A crazy little thing called Love

As the song goes "Love hurts .." Watching teenagers and their relationships develop and fall apart on FB or some other means makes you sometimes feel thankful that you are no longer a teenager. But no one tells you that it does not get any easier as you get older, some things never change. In some ways we are never the wiser and certainly it doesn't hurt any less. What happens when the honeymoon is over ? An article I read some months ago reckoned that it was just over two years and a few months that the honeymoon period in a relationship is over. This is the time when one of the party is started to be taken for granted and the thrill of hearing their voice, or receiving that text or waking up and thinking about the other when they are apart starts to diminish or has even disappeared. I for my part say that is not true, but what about the other? What do you do ? Do you ask if something is wrong? Do you just sigh and hope that things will get back to how they were before ? Yes, life gets in the way, but life has always been there. One thing I have learnt is that you should never look back, that doesn't help at all. But what of the future ? This I do not know , I do not have a crystal ball. All I know is that we will all struggle on through each day and hope that someone will love us, warts and all.

Horizontal musing

A grey morning today, no frost, no blue skies, no sunshine. Not a day to spend outside either in the garden, on the bike or walking. Certainly not a day to listen or watch the news. Today there is no news except for the Royal Wedding. They are a brave couple, I will give them that, better they stay as they are I say, but David Cameron will be rubbing his hands in glee, what better to boost the economy than a Royal Wedding in the offing? Today will be spent trying to improve my own economy and that is as daunting as the national one, but mine will not be rescued by the announcement of a Royal wedding and will not be solved by lying here.

Sunday Morning thoughts

I need a plan, a good plan. A plan for today, a plan for the future. I am not sure what, but one thing I do know is that I need to plan to do something and something positive. Some things I can do something about , others are beyond my control and lie in the hands of others and so I am at their mercy.

Life is shit sometimes.
