OK... i have to interject here.. and if you want, hit the ejection button anytime lol. I think that the *right * answer would be that we hold our own. But I am willing to bet, that alot of people base how they are feeling by the way things are going with someone important to them. I know I know... its not the answer that most want to hear , or admit to. But I think it happens more often then we realize. Think about it. You are in love...things are solid... you feel content , and happy. Things get rocky, it's harder to feel that way. It's not the way it should be, ideally, and I realize alot will say.. but you yourself can change that.. and yes, I know this. I just think that people need to be more aware, that this phenomonon of putting our happiness into someone else's hands (or heart for that matter) does happen, and it does effect how we are feeling. I know Im gonna get alot of protest on this one. I am not blanketing everyone with this thought.. I am just trying to bring some awareness..
