i don't anticipate that this is going to be an easy day. in fact, i've been suspecting that the reason for my deeper depression this week is because i knew this day was looming large at the end of this work week.
a holiday celebrating love and lovers. it's i'm sure a wonderful concept, and i can remember a few of these holidays in years past that i was a willing and enthusiastic participant (i can't say that michael and i were always very good at engaging in this particular holiday). the unfortunate thing is when you feel alone and your heart is broken, days like today just seem to intensify the emotion surrounding your condition. but i'll do my best to manage through.
in keeping with the spirit of the day, i'll share two songs on the subject of love -- one about seeking love, the other about having it and cherishing it. when i think about it, i guess for me personally, one is about where i am and the other is where i hope to be someday. the sad thing is that i'm realizing that even with having been in a relationship i've continued to be in this exact same space in relation to these same two songs for all of my adult life.
