I'm actually in a really peaceful mood tonight. So I thought i'd give another entry a shot. I was really aggravated earlier today. How could I not be? I try not to get that way, but rather...work past it. I'm confident that everything will work out though.
I think I'm going to spend the rest of the night reading, I actually think I need to take an Advil PM to knock me out here soon because of the nap I had. I enjoy being inspired off of the book I read, and it doesnt happen too much. I'm really getting into Oscar Wilde, perhaps more so for his private life because the way he writes makes me wonder about it- the only other time thats happened is with Virginia Woolf and Edward Gorey. I think that might take a really talented writer, to write in such a way that it makes you wonder who they are as a person. I actually have gotten wonderful ideas from him about my own book. Well...not so much from him. The way he writes makes me want to take my observations of people and put it in my book. I'd really love to do that but where, and how would you keep that interesting?
So, I'm thinking about a question Andrea asked me: How does one define romance? I wasnt quite happy with my answer for it...so if you ever do read this pretty lady --perhaps this is a more suitable answer. Its not only fits of euphoria, because that you can experience anywhere, so perhaps that was a poor answer. Its only part of it. Its euphoria that you can only share with one person, that makes your heart beat faster in a way that it would normally not do in regular euphoria. Its the kind of euphoria that makes you knees grow weak, and your eyes water with passion that you feel with the person your with. It alters the way you view the world, making the simplest thing almost magical as if your a kid again. Everything has a deeper meaning in that moment, and you could not imagine being anywhere but by the side ofthe person that invokes that feeling in you. When your in a romantic mood, the silliest things arent so silly but heart felt. Its a feeling that you have a hard time finding words for, because of the thousands of images that rush to your head when the word is said. Maybe thats what romance is...feeling your heart more than you ever do. Not just feeling it pump the blood through your body harder...but feeling it with every fiber of your soul.
I think thats a suitable answer. Still a very poor one, but I was not gifted with words.
I think thats enough rambling for today. Goodness...all the thoughts that have floated into my head today! I've had a very thoughtful one, thats for sure!
