Tuesday was the happiest day of my life!

July 26, 2008

I just found this song last night.

This song actually describes the whole of that loss-- I was sadly mistaken on many counts. And the parts about being numb, dropping things, bumping into things, they were true for the first month or so. But I don't feel such a loss now. I feel whole, I feel excited about the future, and I can't wait to begin my married life with my actual soulmate.



It's funny how things just fall apart when they're not meant to be-- but when they are meant to be, neither wild horses could drag you away from one another. It's amazing how simple things are when you find the one who was made for you.

So I suppose that all my railing against the thought that love conquers all was misplaced. Love does conquer all, but only when it's real, true love, and only when both partners can express their love in ways that the other needs, and only if there is a true committment to one another. Otherwise, it's not going to last very long. Love is more important than passion... not that passion isn't a vital ingredient, it is, but passion alone masquerading as love will not be able to go the distance.

These are valuable life lessons.
