Holding On to Love

Sometimes your heart loves someone but your mind won't let you. And sometimes you want to love someone but you're not able to.

Such is the dilemma of someone who thinks too much and has a tendency to overanalyze everything.

In the past, I have had moments where I have been rash and impulsive, and in those instances I have made decisions that were nothing short of disastrous. I overthink things now, overclocking my brain into thnking things that perhaps, don't need to be thought at all.

A friend of mine once told me to relax, and perhaps it is sage advice.

My insecurities are my own, and the process of rebuilding my confidence and dealing with my trust issues is a work in progress, but if I do not let go, my neuroses will probably destroy every single relationship in my life.

Perhaps it is time to apply the principles of taking one day at a time into other more important issues.

I believe Shakespeare was right when he said it is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all. I owe so much to those that I have loved and lost.

I'm crossing my fingers that one day I'll actually be able to hold on to love instead.
