Thank you everyone! And @Doris, I'm not commit-less, this was written at a time where I was feeling very vulnerable, and had recently gotten out of a long standing relationship. It ended badly, and I wasn't quite ready for the man that came into my life next.

why is love fear? It is hard work? I never have understood the commitless ones. Maybe they know they will be a disappointment. Find a forgiving soul. pondering lifes little mysteries on this Monday with healthcare.

Dont be afaid to love, the reward may be much greater than your chances of getting hurt.... Dont let life and love pass you by because of fear. Nice write!

I got a chuckle out of Anthony's response too. We all have times we get scared of being hurt. Interesting use of this concise form. Thank you for participating in my latest blog. Keep on writing! Karen

Chuckled when I read Anthony's comment because I was thinking the same thing. We all want love, but when it is within reach, suddenly there is a sense of vulnerability and fear because we know we are capable of being hurt. Very nice lanterne, Dana! Love, Carolyn
