how was i so wise two years ago?
"So my situation may not be completely special, but my feelings are. I'm in love, but not romantically (if that makes sense). I think that's when you can realize someone's full potential for being in your life: when you love them completely as a person, flaws, habits, tastes, attributes.. everything, and when they're not just slotted into a premade role in your life. i think i've been doing too much of this "slotting" and assigning people as what i wanted them to be and not what they could be in my life. new people could become friends, lovers, partners, mentors, role models, enemies, coaches, muses or simple acquaintances.
this is why i love meeting new people. you never know who or what could nestle its way into your life as if it was destined all along."
way too much "slotting" going on right now. it's good to re-remind ourselves.

just because. :)
this just made me cry.
¨love isn't an act, it's a whole life. it's staying with her now because she needs you; it's knowing she and you will still care about each other when sex and daydreams, fights and futures - when all that is on the shelf and done with.
Love - why, i'll tell you what love is: it's you at seventy-five and her at seventy-one, each of you listening for the other's step in the next room, each afraid that a sudden silence, a sudden cry could mean that a lifetime's talk is over.¨
