Life doesn't always introduce you to people you want to meet. Sometimes life puts you with the people you need to meet to help you, to hurt you, to leave you, to love you and to gradually strengthen you into the person you are meant to become. Unfortunately yet fortunately you've been that person for all of those things. Although at times the hurt was unbearable it never outweighed the love.
When we met, I knew I was going to love you. Part of me thought I was out of my mind to believe it would ever be more than the unexpected love we had made and even though we had shared no real love yet, there was this unexplainable, not just sex, fire in my chest, something so beautiful I couldn't make out in my mind. Love. A love that was so unreal because it was real. The way your arms caressed my body. The way your lips blended so well with mine when you so gently yet agressivly kissed me. But ill never forget the way you looked at me. Not like most. Just looking for a bone. Got it. Then on to the next. No. You looked at me with passionate blue eyes. You stood tall with confidence but I could see you trembling. The same way I was trembling. Because of that love I knew I felt was to real to ignore like there has to be more coming out of this. No man with such passionate blue eyes with lips that went so well with mine, with hands that held mine so perfectly, and arms that I fit in so well, could ever get away. There had to be more to this. Soon after I knew I couldn't just be crazy.

Luv smiled. Rick wanted nothing more than to make her happy, at least in bed. In her heart, she knew she wasn’t ready for another serious relationship and he wasn’t either. Why did she have to pigeonhole it, name and analyze it? She told herself he cared for her. He'd said as much. It was kind of sexy thinking of herself as his mistress or lover. Once you give yourself a label like girlfriend or fiancee' there's list of expectations and responsibilities that come with it. She’d often told women to feed their partner’s fantasies if they were within reason. This was within reason. Lover was much sexier than the other labels. No baggage either. The only expectation was that of pleasure. Before now she hadn't considered herself a live in the moment
“Love is complex: considered simply in itself, it is neither honorable nor a disgrace-its character depends entirely on the behavior it gives rise to,” (Plato 183d). There are two different types of love that Pausanius refers to, which are the common and heavenly love. The common love is based on your love for someone for their body, sex or beauty making it physical love and desire for a person. Heavenly love is love for the mind such as your intelligence and strength, someone you can benefit from making one more wise. Any love that is encountered has a purpose whether is it the love between a mother and daughter or the love between a husband and wife. In the end, all love leads and is directed to virtue and improves the loved ones.
Two stand in the center, one yearns for the power to not be a burden, the other wishes for the power to lift any hardship, yet both walk together, the strings of many emotions tying them together. As they stand together in me, they stood together outside of me. Mayhaps they, together, might stay here intertwined for a lifetime. Even now, though, a force pushes against my walls like the swelling tide of a raging sea, fully intent on shattering my fortifications, but I shall not let it. I will not let him steal my family.
One year ago today I fell in love with the most caring, understanding, amazing man on earth. Whom I am happy to call you. I fell in love with you in a gas station parking lot (so romantic), when you kissed me after puking. I felt something I never felt before and I held back so many tears of happiness. In that moment I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you. When I am in your arms at night I know I am where I am supposed to be, and I wouldn’t want it any other way. I am so excited for our future together, and the many things we have ahead of us its all a surprise, and there’s not another person I would want to be on this ride with than you. I never knew I could be so in love with someone and every day I fall more in love with you.
As the majority of people grow older we begin to see that life is unfair in so many ways. We see that some people have it easier financially while some have it hard, others are born athletic and others aren’t, and some find love early and or easily while some will never find it. When you think about what life is truly about you’ll come to realize the grim truth of life and its true purpose. All in all life is made unfair to force people to change and the changes we choice to make effect so much of the future that we could never begin to comprehend.
“Love, whether newly born or aroused from a deathlike slumber, must always create sunshine, filling the heart so full of radiance, that it overflows upon the outward world.”
As humans, we naturally have the desire to be loved, whether by family, a close friend, a significant other, and etcetera. Either way, we hope to have these important people in our life so we may share our deepest desires and have someone to listen to us when we go through hardships. However, as humans, we also have the ability to feel lonely when we don’t have someone to lean on. Fortunately, the answer to these problems of loneliness and desolation is simple: it starts with prayer. Prayer is not just and rambling off of memorized words that have no meaning, but a lifting of our minds and hearts to God in praise and petition in a relationship of love (Singer-Towns 185). All people are called to prayer, whether through thanksgiving, petition, or adoration!
En amour, il y a toujours celui qui donne les baisers et celui qui tend la joue."
Throughout life, many individuals are blessed in certain aspects of their lives. These aspects could be in love, fortunes, or life itself. Although people may be grateful for what they have it is common that they will take these great aspects for granted. When people take these important and blessed aspects of their lives for granted it pisses me off. I have been fortunate enough to have a great life and I have been blessed in many ways. I am always sure to appreciate the people, materials, and life I have. Unfortunately, I have seen people take their lives for granted, so it is my goal to try and make these individuals realize the amazing lives they are blessed with.
1 Peter 5:10 says, “and after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.”
One plus one by Beyoncé was just a rhythmic song which I loved because of the message in the song about never giving up on your lover no matter the circumstances, always sharing an everlasting love and being content with whatever we have, until I scrutinized it, and more complex meaning started flowing through my brain therefore, making visible all the connotations in the song. This song might just be a common love song to most people since they might not have taken the pain to pay close attention to what the lyrics mean. The song literally talks about staying with your lover no matter the circumstances and love is the most important thing in the world. However, I see that, the song is talking more about how humans will not have everything they always want to have but need to learn to appreciate, cherish, and be satisfied with every little thing they have. After I played the song many times, pausing to read the lyrics, thinking about it and finding connections with the song made me find elucidations of the song and it fascinated me so much that I had not found clarifications with this song way before because, it’s something I play regularly.
Love only. I attempt to make it a point and live by that code, and it gets hard sometimes, but what’s life without a little challenge. I wouldn’t say that if given the opportunity I’d take the more dangerous and risky road, because I would be lying, but I’m not entirely opposed to walking on thin ice every now and then. It’s not my greatest quality, but it’s a dominant one. My close friends would undoubtedly describe me as the “mom” of the group, but others would possibly say something more along the lines of “a lost puppy”. I’d love to say that my eloquence is ineffable, but unfortunately that is not the case. I just have a strong love for reading. If you were to name a book, there’s a 70% that I’ve read it, wanted to read it, have put it on my reading list, or have heard of it. I’d really love to have something more interesting to say about my personality, but all I do is sing karaoke, read, and watch Fifth Harmony videos. So onto the specifics we go!!
