To The Ones That Got Away: Mandy By Barry Manilow



Well the big day and when it comes let the games begin.  Today is Valentine's Day as flower shops and candy stores will probably make a killing when as people will buy roses and chocolates for the ones they wish to confess their feelings to.  There those who already have a special someone in their lives and some of them unfortunately take them for granted.  This is because they didn't know what they had till that person leaves them.  I get reminded of that lesson whenever I hear the song "Mandy" by Barry Manilow.

This was on MTV's greatest love songs lists and it comes to know surprise as it still makes listeners cry whenever they hear it.  It doesn't have to be someone named Mandy as it could be anyone we once knew and loved at one point in our lives.  Someone who accepted us for who we were and gave their all for us.  Unfortunately, we just took them for granted until the day they weren't there anymore and then we feel the loneliness followed by the regret of what we had and lost.  Love like that doesn't come everyday and when we're left alone, we realize our mistake too late.

For those who find their soul mate, never let them go.  Reciprocate every kind act that they give and be happy that they are there with you.  Don't ever let them go cause if you do, you'll regret with the rest of your life.  Even if you hook with someone else, it's not the same and the fact that you think of them everyday is proof of that so when you find him or her don't let them get away.
