I'm someone who is looking for love. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, time consuming, can't-live-without-each-other love.
The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return
'I'm... just a girl, standing in ''front of a boy, asking him to love her.''

Love Stoned
Love is a many splendored thing. My entire monday morning has flown by with this sentence running through my brain. Love is a many splendored thing. Love is a many splendored thing. Splendor, a word I havent heard in a very long time and today I am saying it over and over again. Splendor. Splendor. I have also been chanting love love.... I think in times to come dear universe, you will be receiving a lot of posts about love and romance.
Since I have kept my eyes open for love and romance. I have found it. Not just in movies and books. But around me. I saw my grandmother, who in her younger years was romanced, by my grandfather. Years after his death she met another man and in their old age, still have love. Both sitting endlessly for a doctor's appointment and like wise. Seeing my parents, being all silly and playful , literally running around the house. Seems a little immature, but also seems very loving... and just ......being so happy. Even my generation, I saw a friend, who would do anything for his girl, she just has to pout or screw up her forehead and he's soft putty in her hands.
The thing about love is, it doesnt have to be grand gestures, it doesnt have to be flying across the Atlantic ocean or chasing behind a taxi or petal laced path. Like life, in love maybe its the small things. I say this after lots of research and zero experience. That love does exist, in real life, people have loved someone their entire lives and still experience the thrills of it even after decades and decades of it later. When they were asked what they love about their partner. None of it was.. oh we went on a carriage ride in a moonlit night, or she made the most beautiful candlelight dinner, which was... yada yada.............. They love and remember .. things like, 'when she sits next to me and falls asleep', that makes me feel like such a man... or the way she itemizes everything on the shelf. The way he has to coffee before doing anything else, when she smiled ... and even now when she smiles..their are butterflies in my stomach. All these were after decades of being in love.
Grand gestures are great, but its the many a small and splendored things.............. Oh universe, I sound completely love sick, and the cupid hasnt even struck. I understand why people go looking for love. Because its a beautiful thing, its like a scenic picture, you know its beautiful. But it'll only be truly breath taking when you are actually there. When you are actually at that place. I know love will be absolutely amazing.
Universe....... am I setting myself up for massive disappointment? or am I just being normal and waiting for that many splendored thing?
