True Love Forever Day 2022

    True Love Forever Day

True love forever is relative to where you are in life. Some of us meet and become soulmates early on. Others of us are late bloomers and delay til later — sometimes very much later.

True love is said to last forever and that no time or space between can cast it asunder. This is True Love Forever Day and it is a time to show that special someone the way that you feel.

My personal relationships have come and gone and I feel that at this juncture I have met my true love forever ...

But age and experience have tempered that crazy aspect which once took control of my attractions and I try to be a kinder, gentler, and socially aware individual I never knew early on.

The origins of the day are to be found in Robert James Waller's 1992 novel, The Bridges of Madison County.

The premise is a somewhat fantastic spin on reality so I was never really attracted to the book mostly due to that era in which it was released and the type of reading in which I was primarily enagaged.

This leaves me to my own devices regarding the day and what it means to me.

Couple this with the stream of mistakes I have made in matters of the heart early on and it's easy to see why I don't get pushy nor go pawing all over my chosen one.

Life is a journey, not a destination. Mine has been fraught with the pitfalls associated with failures of comprehension and understanding.

However, I have indeed arrived — a number of years back now — and I am now content to feel as I do without any need for control of anything or anyone.

I suppose maturity hits us all at some juncture. I'm content to be who I am.

Happy True Love Forever Day to you.
