She has set her notifications that prevent communication from those in faraway lands. I send her a LIKE in hopes that she will reconsider her position and allow a message to be received from another continent. I can understand her reluctance - this person she desires should be within 50 miles or less for practical reasons - and where too would I find the money to pay for a flight (when flights resume more as they should) to get her to me or vice versa? I'm idealistic, I know, but shouldn't we believe love will find out the way? As per the following poem:
Love Will Find Out The Way
Over the mountains
And over the waves,
Under the fountains
And under the graves;
Under floods that are deepest,
Which Neptune obey,
Over rocks that are steepest,
Love will find out the way.
When there is no place
For the glow-worm to lie,
When there is no space
For receipt of a fly;
When the midge dares not venture
Lest herself fast she lay,
If Love come, he will enter
And will find out the way.
You may esteem him
A child for his might;
Or you may deem him
A coward for his flight;
But if she whom Love doth honour
Be conceal'd from the day-
Set a thousand guards upon her,
Love will find out the way.
Some think to lose him
By having him confined;
And some do suppose him,
Poor heart! to be blind;
But if ne'er so close ye wall him,
Do the best that ye may,
Blind Love, if so ye call him,
He will find out his way.
You may train the eagle
To stoop to your fist;
Or you may inveigle
The Phoenix of the east;
The lioness, you may move her
To give over her prey;
But you'll ne'er stop a lover-
He will find out the way.
If the earth it should part him,
He would gallop it o'er;
If the seas should o'erthwart him,
He would swim to the shore;
Should his Love become a swallow,
Through the air to stray,
Love will lend wings to follow,
And will find out the way.
There is no striving
To cross his intent;
There is no contriving
His plots to prevent;
But if once the message greet him
That his True Love doth stay,
If Death should come and meet him,
Love will find out the way!

What can I say? Many years go by and nada. It gets really tough to keep on believing that there is that special someone out there for you. Maybe it's just not in the cards, and the sooner you realize that, the sooner you can be free of the whole romantic thing? Sometimes I can handle the 'loneliness' situation better than at other times. Right now, all I want to say is: 'Ahm lonely, woman! Git a move on!'
