Edon and Jim Morrison

Nov 11, 2008 16:01

So, last night as I was waiting for True Blood to load, I was talking to Edon. He was talking to me about Noi and I started talking to him about Doron. He wanted to know exactly what was happening with us, because he said that it looked like things were different this weekend. He is so fucking smart and observant - sometimes I'm just shocked at how much he sees and how deep he can really be when everybody stops laughing at him and takes him seriously.

He told me that it really sucks that things didn't work out - that he really wanted this for me. When he asked me why he wants to be just friends and I told him that the decision is composed of several different components, but mainly for two reasons: 1 - Doron is afraid that I will hurt him again, 2 - Doron is afraid that he will hurt me again. The only thing that he could say to that was "That's bullshit Aless." Then he told me that there was something that he wanted to show me that fits my situation at the moment... he gave me two quotes from Jim Morrison...

“People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that's bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they're afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they're wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It's all in how you carry it. That's what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you're letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel!"

“That's what real love amounts to- letting a person be what he really is. Most people love you for who you pretend to be. To keep their love, you keep pretending- performing. You get to love your pretence. It's true, we're locked in an image, an act-”

Better put than anything I could've written.
