something!
I find myself annoyed by various things right now. Most notably, people's incessant need to post all of their business on social networking sites (Facebook, specifically)... it's gotten out of control, & I'm totally disgusted by it. But, that's another topic for another day. I had something else on my mind.
The human heart is an amazing muscle. It's as important, if not more important, than the human brain. How fascinating it is to know that these two mechanisms are the key to every relationship we develop... everything we do in life. Our heart is strong enough to pump blood throughout our entire body, yet, one lie... one disappointment, can make it feel as weak as a damaged flower. Our brain sends signals throughout our body in a matter of nanoseconds, yet, one lie... one disappointment, can cloud and damage it for years. Knowing these things, one might believe that we would be more considerate of each other. However, those simple facts are taken for granted more than life itself.
How beautiful it is to give and receive love... to think about and know love. But, how horrible it is that we take it for granted... thinking that it's as common as a penny on the street. Maybe it is, but just like those pennies on the street, love is unique & valuable. So, why not pick it up & invest it somewhere; instead of picking it up, & throwing it right back down... stepping on it.
Hmm... I was trying to be deep... I don't know, just rambling really. Not in that poetic mood, but definitely feel as if I have something to say... I guess I'm just tired of people shitting on love like it's a damn port-a-potty. Even if you don't want a long-term relationship/friendship w/ someone, respect that person & respect yourself. Respect the institution of love.
