It has been said
That it's better to have loved and lost
Than to never have loved at all
I find this statement to be an erroneous one
For a man who has never loved
Knows not what he is missing
And a man who has loved
Is left to long for that which he has lost
Therefore I say unto you
That it is a far better thing
To have never loved at all
Than it is to have loved and lost.

True, if you look at the world that way.
But you and I both know YOU DO NOT look at things that way!!
I believe love is as necessary as food, shelter and air BUT it doesn't have to be the love of a lover, it could be love of family, a special, dear friend, even a faithful pet.
As long as we have SOME love in our loves we do not sink into the void...

This is very logical. I see what you're talking about.. Hmm, this one made me sit back and think. I like the thoughts that are going on behind this piece.
Very nicely done.. I look forward to reading more.

Thank you all for your replys. I actually wrote this about 2-1/2 years ago. This is just a piece of hard, cold logic and one can't argue with logic...hehe! Thank you all again!

Makes sense only if one is determined to live in the past and does not take into account healing and new opportunities...James

I agree easy enough said, but not so easily done, we all want and crave for love that's human nature.
