Have you ever met someone and instantly felt like they were meant to be in your life? This has only happened to me a couple times and when it does, it always throws me off. It's a beautiful feeling really, but also a scary one. It's comforting finding someone you instantly click with, but then terrifying because what happens when something goes wrong and you lose this person that you so badly want in your life, that you have possibly been waiting for for years. Maybe that's part of the beauty though. You got to have your time with them and that's all that really matters. At least you got to meet them and you had the time together that you did. And if they're really meant to be in your life, you will cross paths again at some point in life. Maybe months from then, maybe years. They will always hold a special place in your heart, though. You'll never forget how it felt when you first met them, you'll never forget the memories you shared. If and/or when you're reunited, it will be just as amazing as the first time you met. I think everything happens for a reason and if someone is meant to be in my life, they will be. It doesn't matter if we go months or years without seeing each other, there will always be a connection. I've always been a lover, not a fighter. I love hard and when I say I'll never stop loving you, I mean it. Maybe it's not the same kind of love as it was in the beginning, but there will always be love. I fall in love with a lot of people I meet. Rather they are female or male, young or old, black or white, human or animal. I love meeting people, I love getting to know them, I love listening to them talk, I love hearing their stories, I love watching them. There is so much love to be spread in this world. I'm just trying to help spread it or something. I don't know what I'm doing. This post went in a weird direction.
Once upon a time, I read this quote that went something like "everyone says love hurts, love doesn't hurt. Pain, rejection, lying, cheating hurts". There was more to it. I don't remember it all, but you get the gist. Love doesn't hurt, love is never supposed to hurt. What hurts is being lied to, being cheated on, being rejected, being lonely, etc. Ok, don't worry, I found the quote. "Everyone says love hurts, but that is not true. Loneliness hurts. Rejection hurts. Losing someone hurts. Envy hurts. Everyone gets these things confused with love, but in reality love is the only thing in this world that covers up all pain and makes someone feel wonderful again. Love is the only thing in this world that does not hurt." - Mesa Selimovic Great quote. One of my favorites. I found that in high school when I was like "f*** love". Then I read it and man did it open my eyes. It's so true and so well said. I think a lot of people are afraid to love because they associate it with pain. I know I was for a very long time. Love is such a beautiful feeling though. Falling in love, being in love. Going on first dates, sharing your first kiss with someone you've got a crush on. There is really nothing like it in this world. It's funny that I made this post right before Valentine's Day, I really did not mean for this to be about love. I was just trying to express the feeling of meeting someone that feels like they belong in your life. Which I guess could be associated with love. Well, now it is. MY WRITING IS RUSTY, I'M SORRY. SPREAD THE LOVE. Not only on Valentine's Day, EVERY DAY! Maybe a little more than usual on Valentine's Day, because who doesn't love a little extra love?! (I know I do!) But it's even more special when you show that kind of love on a day that isn't Valentine's Day. Honestly though, if you love someone and I mean really, really love them, make sure you tell them every day because tomorrow is NEVER promised. (RIP Eston "Slim" Graver). <3
