Greetings to all our lovely Sportzdaters out there who are champing at the bit to kick start their New Year by finding the love of their life. Hoping you've all had a very Happy Christmas and had some fun playtime out in this glorious sunshine. We have a barage of inspiring quotes to fire your way in the hope that 1 or more will light that spark to get you longing for love. Howsabout putting “finding love” at the tippy top of your new years resolutions list? For that special someone to train with, to play with, to laugh and cry with, to support you, for you to support, to help you achieve all your personal bests, and make those dreams come true.

“If destiny comes to help you, love will come to meet you. A life without love isn't a life” (Rumi).

Yes indeedy, so looks like the trick is to do all that you can to get destiny coming to help you. Seeing as we've gone mad in December and made it really easy to “find your good sort”... right now is the perfect opportunity to go for gold and get yourself out there. We're offering upgrades for just half the normal price for a 3 monthly membership, and we've also invited STANDARD members to REPLY to messages they receive from PREMIUM members and join in the CHATROOM.

“Love is in the air, everywhere you look around...” is a song to remind us that all we have to do is open our eyes and our hearts to see love around every corner for us. Just remember not to be too picky, “the beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them” (Thomas Merton). ….“Choose your love, then love your choice”, (unknown)

The question to ask yourself is do you want to be truly and deeply happy this new year? “There is only one happiness in life, to love and be loved”, (George Sand). Wouldn't it be nice to have someone wondering why you're late home one night? Someone special to share your life with and care for? “May my heart by your shelter, and my arms be your home” (Marianne Willliamson).

Just a wee reminder, that after 17 years of nursing I can absolutely 100% vouch for this next quote:

“When we come to the last moment of this lifetime, and we look back across it, the only thing that's going to matter is ‘What was the quality of your love?’ (Richard Bach).

“Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage” (Lao-tzu). In these times of uncertainty, and stress, having someone to come home to each night, to take care of, and who takes care of you, someone you can talk with, someone to share all your hopes and dreams with, is priceless.

So come on all you “good sports”, this is the perfect time to get out there and find your “good sort”, and start the very best chapter of your life....new love. We wish you all the very best in your search, and that destiny steps up to give you a helping hand. “The entire sum of existence is the magic of being needed by just one person” (Vi Putnam).....”To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world” (Heather Cortez).
