Life Is A Difficult Task

I have always been a fan of comfort and peace. I have lived in the same house for 7 years, had the same spouse for 14 years and have lived in the same state for close to 30 years. However, life does change. I have a lot of friends who seem to have an easy time taking life as it comes, but for some reason, I can't imagine myself doing the same. If I need to pick up and change my life, why wouldn't it be as easy for me? What is my problem? Why is change so hard? I seem to be resistant. Well, it's because I don't want it to change. In life, there are things beyond our control...no matter how hard we try to control them. People say "you will be ok" and "you will make it through this", but I think that all they mean is that "I will not die and will remain amongst the living". Not good enough. I am willing to fight for what I care for and I am not willing to give up on what means the most to me. I will not go down with this ship. Love is love. No matter how messed up a person may be. We are ourselves before we are joined and we need to take care of ourselves in order to be one. And that is what I plan to do...

More to come.
