The other night I had a dream. Well, let me back up. Lately I've had kind of a don't-think-about-it approach to love. Because mostly it just depresses me. I've taken up new hobbies, made new friends, kept in better contact with the old, and basically just concentrated on making myself happy. If I don't think about what's happened in the past, I'm hoping it will just hurt less and less. Plus I've already thought about it all too much anyway, so I was pretty sure thinking about love was all thought out.
So the other night I had a dream. I fell in love. I don't really know who the guy was. Some random person. It doesn't really matter that I don't know him, the dream was about the feelings. I had forgotten how beautiful it is to fall in love. The consuming corny, tingling feelings. Being hugged and kissed. It felt so real. The electricity. Just being purely happy, and making someone else blissfully happy simply with your presence.
I woke up with a smile on my face, and the dream has been in the back of my mind ever since. I can't wait to fall in love again. And by this, I don't mean I'm in a rush, I will just to be so excited to get that feeling back. Even if I do have to wait for a long time, it will be worth it to have someone to spoils with hugs and other surprises.
So even though I am still slightly bitter, I am secretly optimistic.
OOOHHHH!!!!! AND now I am COMPLETELY excited, because my roommate just called and said the floors in the bedrooms of our house don't need to be redone, SO I GET MY NEW ROOM TONIGHT!!!!!!!! WAHOOOO!!!!!! Danielle, I know you will understand this, as a fellow-love-to-rearrange-roomer. I GET TO DECORATING AND ARRANGING MY NEW ROOM TONIGHT!!!!!!! I was going to have to sleep in jennifer's room for a few days (until I leave for the weekend), and then come back to my new room late Sunday night, but now I get it TONIGHT!!!! I AM SO HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!! I am going to be up all night, but I don't even care. I don't work til 3 in the afternoon tomorrow, anyway. I want to run around the newsroom screaming liking a crazy person, but I don't want to give myself away. Plus everyone probably thinks I'm crazy the way I've been laughing with Wonetha and Antone lately, anyway.
I love life. See? Even without love, LIFE CAN BE SO AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
me,
dating,
love,
happy
