First Site...
Is it crazy to think that you could fall in love at first site? That someone could overwhelm your heart and soul so much that you instantly find yourself wanting to get on one knee and spend the rest of your life with them at very first glance? Some say its hormones, because you don’t really see the person for who they are. To me that makes no sense. My mom to me is my nurturer and parent, while to her husband or mother or brother she is a completely different person… how can you EVER know someone completely when they are actually a hundred different people depending on how they look at them? Is it acceptable to only say that you love them when they (to you) become a person you’ve come to relate with and understand? When do you reach that acceptable point in time when “your allowed” to be in love with them? People constantly evolve in your heart, otherwise they don’t stay around… The girl you crush on, becomes the girl you like, the girl you like becomes the girl you date, the girl you date becomes the one you love… and when you look back at all these different stages in your relationship it almost seems like you were with a completely different person each time. That being said… maybe its not possible for you to love someone as a close companion and mate at very first glance, because to you he/she isn’t that person yet, but you could easily fall… head over heels for them as the person they are in that first stage of it all. And as you grow closer and they transform slowly… there would be ways to fall in love “at first site” over and over and over again until the end of time… think about it.
What A Joke...
Love is a joke. Yes I said it… L-O-V-E is a joke. I suppose many would argue that statement, especially those people who are currently blessed with its company and are living in complete euphoria and aw of its power. Think about it though, even those of you who’s heads are floating amongst the clouds… what is a joke? The first thing that would come to the mind of most is “something funny or laughable” or “something NOT serious.” Sure that would describe one attribute of that four-letter word, but there is much more to it then that. Think about when something horribly ironic happens to you and all you can manage to mutter out of your dropped jaw is… “Is this a joke” Think about that horrible day you went threw and your friend came over armed with a clever and side splitting joke to tell… think about how it brightened your mood. It is Shock, it is laughter, it can ease a tense situation, yet bring discomfort to another if used improperly. It is summed up into a simple definition, yet words can’t even start to describe the power of its presence. Tell me is love any different? Love is a joke.
God Anyone?
We live to chase impossible goals; unaware of the fact that fate follows us just the same. We are blessed with gifts from the heavens nearly every second of our lives, yet we are too lazy to obtain and understand the “glasses” that allow us to see these treasures. It’s funny how we drive ourselves insane over something that will never be, yet never seem to admire the things that are already true. So this is the world that were living in, the one that somehow we have come to accept as normalcy. Religious groups threaten eternal damnation if you don’t follow their definition of “truth” yet we scream that we are a free people. Am I supposed to believe that I’m going to burn in the fiery depths of hell according to 1,000 different religions, or that I will live in a perfect paradise according to 1 of them? The math in my mind tells me to find the similarities and to do my best to follow as many of their practices possible to better my odds. But, if I’m following faith with my head instead of my chest then I’m already too late…
