Listening To Love Songs

So... it must seem like I am complaining but my love life is kinda dry and just waiting for a spark to come along. I know you girls out there understand, it's fine being single but sometimes you just want a boy to look at you or say something that just says "I don't know why your single" kinda thing..... anyways let me know what you think!

When listening to the radio, it is hard to find a song that is not portraying a love bird feel to it
For people in relationships it feels empowering, you know what they are talking about - you've experienced it and currently have it
But what about the singles?
Don't get me wrong, single has its perks and I don't regret being single but ... you always seem to wonder what it would be like to not be single for once
Relationships (I believe) allow you to experience a part of you that you never knew or could experience while being single
Think about it
Being single allows you to explore the confident, bravery, and trust that you put into yourself
However, a love relationship allows someone else to step in and (for the most part) improve those features
This significant other boots your confidence by telling you things you don't normally hear, they do activities that you don't usually do (allows you to be brave) and they also allow you to trust what they tell you
When listening to a love song, sometimes it does make me sad that I am not in that same place right now but then I think my time will come
My time will come when I am listening to that love song and I'll be that girl that that beautiful singer is singing about

It's all about perspective

I found myself earlier reflecting on yesterday - was it a bad day, or was it a good day? I don't usually label my days as bad or good, to be clear, but yesterday wasn't a regular day. Niagara Falls, Ontario The short of it: I had an anxiety attack, in the rain, in downtown London, on the way to an event with my partner who had yet to witness an attack. The works - tears, hyperventilation, nervous energy and jitters. But to truly elaborate the perspective bit, there is a longer story to it.  I think it's important to add context, to shape why it was a matter of a bad day vs good day. So here we go.

Consistently Inconsistent

 I've certainly proven that I'm unable to regularly journal or blog. That I'm pulled to write when things are bad or awry or beyond my control, but rarely in a time where I feel joy, happiness or am at peace with things. We all know I'm here, journaling again, because I'm in my head. Feeling. Reflecting. Likely overthinking. As to be expected - consistently inconsistent.  I've been pushing myself for months now. Focusing on doing more, achieving more, earning more, finding more....always more . And I am so t i r e d. Somewhere along the way of trying to redefine myself and achieve goals I had set for myself, I lost sight of why I was doing things. What was motivating me. Why I set these goals.

Vulnerability

For the past few days, perhaps even a week now, I have been tossing and turning many ideas through my head of what to blog about.  I even was able to get a draft going on the value of actions vs words, but it just doesn't feel finished yet. I finally came up with a concept. Vulnerability. I know most of us know what vulnerability is, or what it means to be vulnerable, but in case anyone is looking for clarification, Webster's dictionary defines vulnerable as "capable of being physically or emotionally wounded; open to attack or damage." So many of us spend our lives running from being vulnerable, from trying to protect ourselves because we simply don't want to be hurt.  I'm not talking just about relationships here, but everything.  Some of us don't like to have pets, because eventually a bond is created and that makes us open to pain, especially knowing that odds are we will outlive our pets.  It also pertains to careers- many of us stay inside the ...
