I've always wondered if something was wrong with me. Ever since I can remember, my mind has been preoccupied with the concept of love. It would be easy to think that I was just another young girl, swayed by the energy drink fueled- love machine I like to call "Disney", but this is not the case. I distinctly remember feeling what I thought was love WAY before seeing Beauty and the Beast (which I think was the first Disney movie I ever saw). Chasing a cute little blond boy around the sandbox and trying to hug him to no avail during kindergarten recess was my favorite pastime. I don't exactly remember what his name was (maybe Ryan?), but he helped to form the beginning of what I'd like to consider my love life, for better or worse...
Ever since that initial infatuation, I have been like a crackhead, looking for her next fix, if you will. Not a day goes by where I don't ruminate about love and it's complications, consequences, ramifications, etc in a wax-poetic fashion. Call me crazy if you want.................I'll be standing right next to you, nodding my head in agreement.
I know my obsession with that one little word is a bit extreme, but it seems to be in my blood. Thoughts of it never cease (whether I'm in a relationship or not). I also have a strong passion for writing, so combining the two seemed the most logical thing to do (besides buying a hoveround, even though I'm in my twenties. I'll explain my sick obsession with those things in a later post).
Anywho, my point is that I want to ruminate about that glorious word with others. Perhaps it will be an extremely cost-effective form of therapy for me (yes, I'm kind of cheap). But, more importantly, this may be a way to garner insight and different perspectives on things. I may be opinionated, but I am also a glutton for really great discussion.
So, what do you say? Are you brave enough to hope aboard this crazy train with me? Are you ready to make your brain cry uncle when trying to dissect things to their very cores?
Good, then you're my kind of people. Welcome aboard. Your seat is down the aisle and to the left......
PS: Feel free to comment and discuss as much as you want. It will make me very VERY VERY happy.
