Could You...
Love Another?

What if you
had only  
one chance
in a
lifetime
to find
and love
another.

Would you
find her?
Would she
find you?

Could you
find the way
to love each
other?

Interesting...just suppose you were stranded on a deserted island with a person you detest? Do you think the need to love and be loved would eventually supercede the misunderstandings? Enjoying your thoughts this morning, James!

mmmmmmm okay so this morning I have to wake up thinking. Very well done, James. I think the need to love and be loved is very strong and you could find a way to love another.  

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

James

love this post, coz it's a question I often ask myself.  

Now, what if this person who was supposed to be meant for you gets killed in an accident before you even met him/her, does that mean you'll have to live without a mate?

And what if you found your soulmate despite that little mishap, then was that 1st one your soulmate, or should it be this 2nd one that you met later?

*sigh* mind boggling.

A darn good question youre asking.  Why is love brings up so many questions and so few answers?  As far as the desert island thing goes, yes I do believe love would supercede any arguments, maybe because it is harder to argue than to love.  Anyway, I liked your poem, in its simple asking.

Go ahead, push your luck; find out how much love the world can hold

Thank you Serenity, Startime, Mon Cherie, Apache and peaches for the nice responses.
Serenity I believe it would be a shame to lie on one's deathbed and to realize one has never shared a special love...at some point in everyone's life I believe that they have a strong desire to love and to be loved...and hopefully they will connect and share the beauty of love.
Startime I believe many have a strong desire to love and to be loved but the feelings must be mutual to see a fulfillment of those desires...
Mon Cherie I believe that we can find many that we feel comfortable with...that we feel like they are special...similar spirits...and if both will make the commitment love will have its way...James

Love your ponderings, James.  I certainly hope we'd all be able to find another and fulfill our destiny.  Good write.

I believe it is very possible to love more than one person.
