On Tuesday, a good friend, Eric, told me out of the blue, that he thinks I should find a stable boyfriend here in Melbourne. Although he also said that I'm very picky and that's why I'm still single. *BLEH* The next day, a friend of mine, who does palm reading, told me that a lot of life's lessons for me will be learnt through relationships.

To be honest, I think at times, I put too much weight on what a relationship could bring for me. I also think that although I want to be in one, I also do wonder if I'm really ready for one. Confusion reigns in my heart. All I know is, one is the loneliest number.

Albert Camus said it best in 'The Plague" :

"A loveless world is a dead world, and always there comes an hour when one is weary of prisons, of one's work, and of devotion to duty, and all one craves for is a loved face; the warmth and wonder of a loving heart."
