Questions for Mom

Why do we love the people who don't love us?
Why is it that we attract the wrong people,
and fall in love with them only to realize that they don't love us back?

Why don't people who love us receive our love?
Why is it that when the right people love us they always go unnoticed?

Why are we pressured to be loved?
Why do we assume that love gives us happiness?

Why is it that we strive to be with someone?
Is it really worth revolving ourselves around the concept of soulmates?

What happens if we stop perfecting ourselves in hopes of finding the one?
What happens when we realize that tying the knot isn't tying our stories closed?

What happens if we can't meet our partner's standards and expectations?
What happens if we aren't good enough?

What happens after we see past the ideas and appearances?
What happens after we see people for who they really are?

"Life. Life, happens."
