Way back into love

About a week ago during a tea session my boss said that in his opinion girls handled the matters of the heart much better than boys as they are emotionally stronger. I have on the other hand have always thought that boys are more practical than girls which gives them a certain edge.

If my boss is right then how do you explain all the tears shed by heartbroken girls?

If I am not wrong then why do I find some guys almost becoming direction less in life?

I suppose one cannot simply label it as a boys versus girl scenario. Afterall we are individuals with our own ways of coping with everything bad that love brings. Some people when grieving hide under a shell. Some immerse themselves deeply into work. Some are just unable to function while some keep on acting as if everything is fine.

Our reactions may all be different but there's a wish which everybody has in common... its the wish to find a way back into love. As much as it scares us we still hope for there to be someone who will make our return journey worth it. :)

Here is a song which very simply and beautifully talks about all this.

I've been living with a shadow overhead
I've been sleeping with a cloud above my bed
I've been lonely for so long
Trapped in the past
I just can't seem to move on

I've been hiding all my hopes and dreams away
Just in case I ever need them again someday
I've been setting aside time
To clear a little space in the corners of my mind

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love

I've been watching but the stars refuse to shine
I've been searching but I just don't see the signs
I know that it's out there
There's got to be something for my soul somewhere

I've been looking for someone to shed some light
Not somebody just to get me through the night
I could use some direction
And I'm open to your suggestions

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love

And if I open my heart again
I guess I'm hoping you'll be there for me in the end
There are moments when I don't know if it's real
Or if anybody feels the way I feel
I need inspiration
Not just another negotiation

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love

And if I open my heart to you
I'm hoping you'll show me what to do
And if you help me to start again
You know that I'll be there for you in the end
