Is Love Impossible to Find Again?

I think I finally understand why there are so many single people.  Although many will say it's a choice to remain single, the truth is - it's hard to find love.

Perhaps hard is a bit of an understatement- I'm starting to wonder if it's next to impossible.  Now let us not mistake finding physical companionship with finding love.  I think it's quite easy to find the former and I think many resign themselves to continuing down that particular path jumping from casual encounter to the next casual encounter to stave off the incredible overwhelming feelings that inevitably come from being alone.  Frankly I think it's a coward's way out.  Sure one may feel a momentary reprieve from the loneliness and emptiness that plagues so many singletons, but it is a poor substitute to that deep soulful connection that is spiritually, physically and emotionally so gratifying.

So what is one to do?  How do you quiet that dream of having love again?  How do you fill the void that remains in a heart that once flourished in love?  How do you keep the faith that another opportunity will come?  How can you unlearn that magic that is only realized when you totally lose yourself to another?  

Sadly I do not have answers - just questions, unanswered questions.
