see that big hairy bluishpurplemonster (who really is a scarycat!) SO ADORABLE! ooooooh another furball -winkwink!
anyhows, i was reading this article on 'The Trouble With Love (Stories)' It's awfully true how im such a sucker for love stories. but the trouble with love stories is that (to quote the article) 'this speedy kind of love gets right at the problem with all these romance paradigms: They tend to end right at the point where either love is consummated or the lovers die. And that's not how it works in real life.'
'Real-life love, the kind that leads to 50-year marriages, has different challenges and requirements. It may start with the kind of love you read in books and see in movies. But to find out how the rest of the story is supposed to go, we're pretty much on our own.'
so it got me thinking, about jeev and i, and how our relationship has been sweet and dandy (of course we've had our downs to, but so insignificant as compared to our highs) despite how far apart we've been. it hasnt been easy, and i doubt it will get any easier especially when im in england. the past few days i've been pretty depressed because of themanyreasons that are buried so far behind my subconscious mind that i dont know what's making me sad. i was a little scared to share my 'depression' with jeev, worrying a little (too much) that sharing would be too much of a good thing. but then i realised that if i couldnt share with him, there's no one else i could share with. you know how certain things you can share with friends, some with family and some things, the only person you could share with is yourself? and jeev's like part of me, things i'd only keep to myself, i wont keep it from him. and maybe it's this kinda love that would lead to a 50-year marriage haha.
