Once in a blue moon, a woman may find herself feeling inexplicably melancholic as she contemplates the passing years. She may ponder how a war has not been waged over her beauty, nor has she been the cause of a dramatic duel between two dashing suitors in the early morning light. The absence of a young and talented poet, dedicated to immortalizing her grace in verses, may leave her wistful. And despite her past romantic escapades, her collection of broken hearts remains suspiciously stagnant for a prolonged period of time. These thoughts and sentiments may briefly leave her feeling unfulfilled and longing for the passionate love affairs that seem to exist only in stories and legends.
