it's easy... all you need is love

i don't remember where i heard it. but it was something about having a different love for a different time in your life. it really struck me and i think it brought me to arrive at my final thoughts on the whole "the one" shit and "true love." here it is:

there's no ONE person that you're meant to love. people aren't put on the earth in pairs. you can't help who you fall in love with; so there's no reason to fret when things get muddled up with that one person. (i just used two of the most notorious words in my boyfriend's vocabulary) there's always going to be someone new. someone new will come along and become the right person for you at that right time in your life. it's both beautiful and horrific.. people coming in and out of our lives, constantly. but hey. my ex justin was great to me..and i had a great time getting to know him and loving him. but in the end, it had to end. and we both had to move on to our next loves. love is trial and error, an assembly line.

except none of those things. love is far more complex than any of us could ever try to compute. we hate it, we love it, we fear it, we crave it, we abuse it.. it makes us do incredible things. it makes us do horrible things. it makes us go on crazy rants at 2 in the morning...


i totally adore the "write letters you would never send" thread on the qzll forums... i wrote this recently. i actually really like it in a literary sense, oddly enough.

Dear You,

It'd be awesome if when you get back from Greece, you swept me up in your arms and kissed me, in front of anyone who happens to be there. Don't you think so?

Love,
Me





anyway i'm just going to sleep with my laptop tonight because i am just so comfortable in my bed right now and IN THE ZONE that i think if i get up to go put it on my desk, then i'll fall right out of THE ZONE and the remaining ten minutes/two hours of my night will be ruined. i want to attempt to write something while i'm IN THIS ZONE.
wow, i wonder how often people think i'm all lucy in the sky.
