The Heart Of The Matter

"looking back across the years, the good times and the bad all echo in my mind,
 whispered on a breeze, sweet and bitter memories, of all I left behind..."

Valentine's Day ~ always a tough time if you are single like me, or worse still, if you've only recently become single...but keep your spirits up as you never know what awaits you around the next corner?

A mate of mine told me the other week, that he felt I was a 'wise man'; another close friend calls me her 'Goodness Guru'; yet I just view myself as a kind and caring soul, who happens to be a good listener and someone who can also occassionally offer some well intended advice.
In fact I actually think I'm more suited to being called a silly old fool, who's just a 'hopeless romantic'.
I haven't exactly got a great track record when it comes to women ~ I love 'em to bits, but all I've learned in life is that the more I actually know about 'em, the less I really understand!

All I will say to all the other singles out there is, "don't despair because our time will come one day...all good things come to those who wait, and good things happen to good people."

And to all the couples I say, "be thankful for what you've got, and make sure you spoil each other rotten every chance you get...and not just on Valentine's Day!"

As for me...well, obviously as recent blogs clearly indicate, I still have feelings for my ex-girlfriend, and under her personal tragic circumstances I know that I will almost certainly find it impossible to lose those feelings.
But other than that, my heart belongs to a place right now, rather than a lady...although there is a certain TWL in this wonderous place, who always perks me up! 

Next weeks blog offers an optimistic look to the future ~ specifically with regards to my travelling adventures to come ~ a 'family' reunion in Ireland beckons, as does a New Zealand 'homecoming'! (Just for you, Ange!)

Finally, I may have been going through a tough time of late, but I just wanted to say thanks to Elona for saying the right things at the right time, and for her continual friendship, love and support

Whatever your situation, enjoy Valentine's Day!
