So I suppose it is time for my next post. A lot has been on my mind this week. Classes are going well so far. In anatomy we had chemistry, and I am not the best at chemistry but I think i've got the basics down. I am still trying to think of a good topic for my research paper....
Right now it is my night off and I am just relaxing watching some TV. Trying to take a nap also. Last night and this morning I have started getting a little sick, and I think it has a lot to do with lack of sleep. I am listening to the song "Young Forever" by Jay-Z. This song is too catchy. :)
Tomorrow night I am going to the Taylor Swift concert here in Des Moines. I am so excited! I do not like country music except for her music. Probably because it's more on the pop side. I am going with one of my really good friends that I used to hang out with everyday, but have recently lost touch, so it should be a good time to catch up. :)
This has been on my mind lately. I wonder not only for myself, but for some other people, what would you define love as? Like, how do you know when you are in love? How does it differ from infatuation? Your comments are most welcome. :) These days "I love you" is thrown around so often, but it seems like there is so little true love around.
You are so correct! Love you is tossed out like petals in the wind as well as sorry and have a nice day. What is true love; kiddo you are absolutely asking the wrong person, divorced twice, the last one after 27 years. My personal opinion is unconditional love; that acceptance without exception. It is very very important that both parties must accept each other as they are (without thinking oh I’ll change him/her) and both must make compromises. Don’t know if this helps but enjoyed your blog site. BLOG ON!!
ReplyDelete27 years is a long time to be married these days so you must have been doing something right! :) I agree that you should never enter a commited relationship thinking a person will change for you. Someone is only going to change if they want to change for themselves.
ReplyDeleteHello Sarah,
ReplyDeleteI am no expert either, since my first marriage lasted only five years and my second 16 years. I like being single I guess because I am very independent and value my space/time/energy after raising 5 kids many years as a single parent. I will say though I still love my second husband and we are friends, but we function together only as parents and grandparents, not lifetime partners.
I do find myself "in love" with a man I was "in love" with 40 years ago. What will happen with this I do not know. I love who he was and who he has become. Change him? Change me? I do not know. I like things just the way they are right now and treasure the relationship. More I cannot say.
My parents were married for 68 years and smooched until the end.
