Game Programming help please?

Basically im very new to game design and programming. i love games so passion is not a barrier in this. however the first language i ever tried to learn was C++ and i must say it was difficult and i found it hard to learn. so instead i learned HTML which im pro at now :P. but rather then keep avoiding learning a game language i was wondering if anyone knew a language that could help me learn most languages rather then learn pascal which has a different language to all other programming so i wont be getting much out of it?
