“reaching for something
Theres so much I want to do with my life. So much I want to accomplish. I want to travel the world. Get a great job somewhere different and exciting. I want to make my parents proud of me, so that they know their hard work paid off. I want to live near my sister, always. I want to own a house, and decorate it to my liking. Simply put: I just want to live an inspired and happy life. But lately, all I keep thinking about how I want to fall in love again. And I want it to be for real this time. The goofy, giddy, stupid kind of love that makes you act out of control and happy beyond belief. I want to have romance in my life again. I want to dress up and go on dates. But most importantly, I want to take care of someone, and in turn feel taken care of. I wish I could stop these feelings, but lately I can’t stop thinking about this. Probably because I’m no longer feeling 80/20 like I mentioned before but more like 95/5. Which means that 100% should be right around the corner. And maybe a cute boy will be too.”

“ There are certain people you love who do something else; they define how you classify what love is supposed to feel like. These are the most important people in your life, and you’ll meet maybe four or five of these people over the span of 80 years. But there’s still one more tier to all this; there is always one person you love who becomes that definition. It usually happens retrospectively, but it happens eventually. This is the person who unknowingly sets the template for what you will always love about other people, even if some of these loveable qualities are self-destructive and unreasonable. The person who defines your understanding of love is not inherently different than anyone else, and they’re often just the person you happen to meet the first time you really, really, want to love someone. But that person still wins. They win, and you lose. Because for the rest of your life, they will control how you feel about everyone.
