if you are too concerned with someone to love, you'll miss the love of your life.

Is it possible to fall in love with life?
to look to the sky and feel a peace that quiets your soul,
and feel at least for that moment that everything just has to turn out alright.
to look to the hills that stretch for miles and ribbons of river that flow around them,
and feel lucky to have so much in front of you.
to look at the ground to watch your step,
and find that so many of the best surprises scurry across your path when you least expect them.
to meet the eyes of the people around you
and know that your are and have always been connected
and you feel complete in the midst of otherwise strangers. 
to look to the trees and see that the wind, no matter how temporary or transient,
will always change your mood when it wraps around you.
I suppose it is possible to fall in love with life
and if you are too concerned with someone to love, you'll miss the love of your life.
