anxious_heart
anxious_heartIt's so unorthodox, I don't know which side I want to attempt to take apart first. Right now, I can think of only the good things, the things that actually make us happy. A touch, a hug, a kiss, that sweet warmth of another (take that however you want lol). Those intimate feelings are so powerful, that we'll fight eachother for them just to have a little taste. Some sort of contact, even if it's done in jest. Even the happiest of couples fight sometimes, and that's expected. We HAVE to fight or we'll drive eachother mad some other way.
Behind the shades, that's what it boils down to when it comes to making one another happy. I think all of us as a generation need to learn how to communicate our feelings more clearly and just be more honest with ourselves and others. Simple things that don't cost anything at all are key elements to happiness with ourselves and others. It's all about those special little details.. Remembering her/his birthday, favorite color, favorite movie, anniversary date(God, how do people forget this?), and other things that define a mate as individual. Cliche'? Yes, but it's true.
(This post isn't metal driven like the other. For those of you keeping tabs, I'm listening to more R&B as this flows out.)
Individuality.. yes, this is a big problem in relationships these days. This is especially true for younger couples, but some people never grow up. We're always copying something else instead of being true to ourselves, which is usually a kid's thing. The kind of kid that needs to fit in with some group. It screws things up in the long term because the light on the lies will eventually reveal the truth. Everything is camouflaged, and hardly any of it is what it seems to be.
Knowledge of self. How well do we know ourselves? Most of the time, we find ourselves diving into a relationship without knowing what makes us happy. It becomes all about that other person. That's good to an extent, but you have to feel the force too. Most of the time when I feel like I should be with someone instead of being single, I think of all the things I have in my life right now and all the things I have planned for the future, and they make me happy. I have a pretty good grip on what kind of person I like and what I need to make myself happy, so that's a go. It's fun to take blind chances too, I must say. You never know what you'll end up with and that's exciting in itself.
Love is an adventure that can be fun, exciting, dangerous, and deadly even. All of it's roads are uncharted and there's never a set path for anyone to take, yet it's fun to just plunge into anyhow. There are dead ends and there are places we shouldn't go on our various explorations (which we never fail to get into anyway), but I guess fear doesn't have a place in the parallel universe that is love. We have to brave (and stupid) enough to do and go anywhere to achieve anything. When it's all said and done, you're cast of your eden and you have to start all over.
Not even true love lasts forever, not in my world. You never know when you'll slam into an adamant object and find yourself hurled into the air to come crashing down someplace far from the mind. Love doesn't have insurance or seatbelts, so be on the lookout for all the obstacles in the middle of the road. Once those wheels start really rolling, you're stuck on that wagon til the bitter end. I advise everyone that sees this to just enjoy the ride while you're on it. When it's all said and done, you should eventually be able to look back and say to yourself that the crash was worth the memories left behind.
You can't control the passenger seat .. and since both of you are attempting to drive anyway, things will spin out of control. Just make sure you leave with your spine intact. Another opportunity to have at the wild ride will eventually present itself.
