Written in the Stars

Life is complicated. Let's deal with it. But sometimes, it becomes hard.

Lately I've been toying with the idea of a soulmate. I've decided that the idea is both true and untrue. For some people, there is one person and one person only who is right for them. This is true in the case of my sister, Janae, and her man Timothy. They are perfect for each other, and I honestly can't imagine my sister with anyone else.

For others, however, life is not quite so simple. I believe that for the great majority of people, including myself, there is no such thing as a soulmate. We could be incredibly happy with a large diversity of people, depending on our choices. Theoretically, any two people could be happy together if they were equally willing to work for the relationship. IE Justin Bieber and I could work out. Just kidding. I wouldn't be willing to work at that relationship.

I guess what I'm saying is that relationships depend on life choices, circumstances, and then just a lot of hard work. Janae and Timothy work because of choices they made. In the future, it will take work to keep them together. I'm not saying that people that break up or divorce don't work hard, but I am saying that relationships are not a picnic.

There may be someone out there for me- a destiny written in the stars. Or maybe not. Maybe I have to work for it. Either way- love is a gift. I'll try to cherish it as it comes.
