i originally wanted to write this here. but the server was down so i went the xanga route. so ima copy and paste this bad boy.

i guess...

"...love just isn't enough."

that's what she uttered to me. that's the second time someone has said that to me in the past week. what's the world coming to? i know in my world, love conquers all. in my world, love is all you need. and i believe love is the answer, and i believe love will find a way--did blessed union of souls get it wrong then?

for all you romantic fools out there, it has come to my attention people helplessly fall in love with people they can't be with. they have the love. they just aren't good for each other. so for you idealistic kiddies out there i just wanted to say: i warned you. don't say i didn't warn you.

i've always been someone who loved being in love. it always seemed like it fix a big something in my life. whether that something be an empty void that needed filling up, or that something was a jagged edge that needed to be smoothed out. just something.

so love to me was something special, something super dooper important. more important than my favorite Yankees cap, and more important than my comic book collection with Wolverine #1. yep, it's that special.

and now you're telling me love isn't special? it's really a Louis Vuitton Musette Salsa bag? a Kenneth Cole leather jacket? it's got value but it's not really that special?? good god. hell musta froze over. my world has just shattered into a thousand pieces. a thousand of those really small puzzle pieces you dread putting back together because the picture on the box is so ugly. maybe i'll just go read a book or check some e-mail. this can wait yeah?

i have some news for you. love is always enough. you just have to know whose love you need in your life. like all humans, we are flawed and all fall short. we can do nothing perfectly, because we are not perfect, and so we even love imperfectly.

somethings in life aren't in your control. leave it up to Him. He'll provide no doubt yeah?
