like a needle in a hay stack.

recently i have started to really see people. see them for what they are. how they came to be and how that will affect the rest of their life.
and i have realized through this observation that finding a man, a man to spend the rest of my life beside just proves all the more difficult.
yes there are traits that one looks for, features, talents, attributes but I have neglected to realize the reason for such a difficult search simply comes down to standards.
and even though the search remains in progress, i now know that what i'm yearning for isn't easy to find.
