Cherry Blossoms

Last weekend I had the pleasure of viewing the National Cherry Blossoms along with a couple thousand of other people. I definitely could not have asked for a better weekend to see them with temperatures near 70 degrees and clear skies. Despite the fact I have lived in Maryland/DC area all my life, I have not seen them before last year and it has now become a sort of new tradition that I MUST do and with good friends.
Unlike my love life, I have to say my friends are the most consistent thing in my life and ever lasting. Although love is beautiful much like a cherry blossom, For me it has been short lived with the longest relationship I've been in lasting no more than a year.
This year I had the pleasure of viewing the Cherry Blossoms with my friends Jeff and "T". I met both guys online at various times with the hopes/intentions of "love" (I'm really not that dramatic, but in the cases of them I did consider relationships) Anyway, After really gettting ot know each guy I/we figured it would be best to remain friends. The feeling is mutual and that suits me/us just fine because, they're both really great guys and I woulnd't want to risk a long lasting friendship for a short lived romance.
Please don't get me wrong. I have not given up on finding romance/love, but I guess it all matters on finding the right "blossom"
