If guardian angels exist, then I certainly must have one.

Love should always inspire.

It should never leave you feeling worthless or incomplete.

Regardless of the type of love, it should always improve your life.

He requested I send him something happy to help him through a bad moment.

One of many highlights of 2012: the day when I move and don’t have to spend another day without him.

In my recent sociology class, we spent a lot of time discussing the topic of love and marriage. My professor asked if we think people can fall in love in three weeks. Most people said no. Which is expected. She carried on to ask what we define ‘love’ as. My classmates all gave various answers that all fit together: it’s an emotion, it’s truly caring for someone, the desire share your life with them, and etc. She then asked if a person could ever truly know the person their with. To my surprise, everyone responded with ‘no’. In my opinion, you definitely could know everything about someone, but that is only IF they want you to. My classmates went on to discuss the concept of compromise for the good of the relationship, not lowering your standards for anyone, and to see the signs when to let it end.

I think one of the best conclusions we came to as a class is that there are no specific guidelines for a relationship. Everyone has different requirements in a partner. Not one marriage is just like another. We are all individuals. Sure, there are things that may be similar, but ultimately, each love that comes into existence is unique.

Where has my mind been lately? Well, it’s been in a whirlwind of emotions. Massive opportunities have been thrown my way, and there’s no way I could turn any of them down. The biggest one is that I’ll be moving up north to start a new life. It’s a very bold decision, but to me, it is well worth the risk. I have to try. There’s something about all of this that makes perfect sense to me. It feels like I am meant to do this.
