How To Love
OK, so I just finished watching Crazy, Stupid, Love. And I know it’s almost 1am and I just really feel like talking to somebody about it.
A) Was it just me or did Steve Carell just turned it ON ON for that movie? I could swear there were panning shots of him on film where I found myself tilting my head, jaw slightly opened and quietly thought, “OH YES.” Case in point: when he...

On Those Last Moments Before I Sleep
As thankful as I am for the air that I breathe, my lips continue to long for yours.
You may be gone, but you never left.

He still loves his wife. He wants to continue experiencing it and sharing it. And maybe that makes him crazy. But we should all be so lucky to end up with somebody who has that little bit of insanity. Somebody who never lets you go. Somebody who cherishes you. Forever. Talk about a legacy. Loving someone forever -- that's a legacy.

Glen: I'm only 27 Ally, it's a little too early in life to be bothered.
Ally: Well, I'm 27 and everything bothers me.
Glen: Why? ... We're single, with money, we're healthy, there's plenty ahead of us to get upset about. But now, we're in Toyland aren't we?

On When Nothing Does The Trick
I stand up and walk around.
I look for something to take my mind off things. The room is home. There are stacks of books at one side. Some read and some almost forgotten. On the other side, there’s a big mirror, atop a table of glittered trinkets filled with dainty necklaces and shiny earrings.
For a while, I browse through the old books. There were penned thoughts on each side, dog-eared...

On the Days That Came After
My body is aching.
At night, as I try to succumb to sleep, I shudder and curl up amidst the sheets and muffle out a cry. No matter how many painkillers I take during the day, the darkness of the evening only triggers the pain even more. I look at your photograph, knowing that the memories it carry will give me a moment of relief. I close my eyes, and see you still. I even remember how you smell...
Via the Serendipity Satellite
It kills me to find out that you’ve been missing me all the while that I’ve been missing you. It’s almost like our hearts were still in sync, even if we’re no longer together. As if our emotions and desires transcended away from our bodies to meet in the form of binaries of 1s and 0s, together creating a code, a set of words, that will only mean what it means to both of us:...

“True friends bear each other’s burdens and accept each other’s weaknesses, because without reciprocity, there’s nothing. Friendship is about collaboration, not domination. Because we should be stewards of each other’s rooms, I am happy to help you keep yours clean, but life is too fleeting to let you continue trashing mine. “

A Dream Within A Dream
By Edgar Allan Poe
Take this kiss upon the brow! And, in parting from you now, Thus much let me avow- You are not wrong, who deem That my days have been a dream; Yet if hope has flown away In a night, or in a day, In a vision, or in none, Is it therefore the less gone? All that we see or seem Is but a dream within a dream. I stand amid the roar Of a surf-tormented shore, And I hold within my hand...
