I wonder if it can be said truly that those we love who are cosmically a good match - be it in our lives as a friend or a romantic partner - that when they leave us, or when we lose them, those tears we cry for them are always of a purifying nature.. whereas, when we lose soemeone we loved, and cared about but was wrong for us, the pain they cause us always carries a more lingering effect. We cannot simply swallow the hurt, and bear it for them because we can still love them truly. Instead, we feel that they really betrayed us; and if we really give our heart to them, it can be the worst kind of hurting. In the end, as all pains do, it passes away, but being in love with, or attached to, and loving for a long time someone who is 'wrong' for us, can generally cause more grief. A true love, in all its simplicity, can never cause as much pain - if only because a true love gives so much more over time.

I can fortunately, and honestly say.. I have only loved two people who were really wrong for me in the way I understand it. Since the overwhelming majority of the other relationships in my life are very positive... I can finally peacefully and perfectly happy and completely let go of those past, harmful loves.

I may be overly optimistic, but I am happy with the universe at this point in time, and I love the universe, as I always have. I really do feel as though I'm experiencing a great deal more love than I have before, and so I'll just keep following the principles that seem true to me.

I really feel completely confident in the existence of love. I believe in love because all the signs point to it, for the same reason I believe in God.
