[Soul Vibe]

All this talk about availability... While I agree that people make themselves unavailable, by building all these walls around them, and thus, becoming attracted to more unavailable people in turn, I don't think the opposite is any more helpful. To be too available, (dare I say?) "needy" even. It's interesting to me how many people find themselves burning the candle at both ends. One moment they are protecting their emotions and becoming unavailable, the next they realize they have shut themselves off and become desperately lonely. Acting out of desperation rarely produces desirable results, so we're right back to building walls. Where is the middle ground? Where is the balance? How does one find that place, and more importantly, how does one inspire those around them to discover it as well?
