I've been thinking a lot about people lately. Who we are vs. the world. Everyone has their own quirks, ideas, beliefs, and their own way of doing things, but where do we draw the line of what's right and wrong? Who are we to judge? To become the very idea of what we hate about life?
Why is it that we are so blinded by our own feelings that we can easily crush the spirits of someone we once loved without feeling one ounce of remorse? Why is it that when our heart is broken we want to be consoled, we want attention, we want love, and we want nothing more than for it to be whole again? But if we break a heart it means nothing. As long as we aren't the ones in pain why should it matter, right? We speed away, leaving them to eat dirt from the very ground they used to worship because we walked on it.
The order in which it takes to ruin a relationship is consistently the same. People love and then they hate. They laugh and then they cry. People used to fall in love and stay that way. Now people fall in love and they get bored. They lie. They cheat. They stop talking to you. And then, the worst part of all, they act as if you never existed, as if you never meant anything to them. How easily it is to forget the people who loved you more than life is something that will never settle well with me. I can't see ever forgetting someone that gave me butterflies just by saying "I love you." To me, that is something I never want to forget, it's something that I don't want to go without, and it's not something I'm ever going to just toss in the air because I've gotten over you. It's always going to be a piece of who I am.
I'm very aware that people fall out of love, I'm also aware that people change. However, I'm not aware of this behavior that seems to be accompanied by so many people in the world. If I tell you I love, I mean it. It means that I would have never done anything to hurt you, it means that you were the most important person in my life, it means I would have spent the rest of my life making you as happy as I could, It means I will never doubt the love I had for you, it means that you will always be part of my heart, part of my thoughts, and no matter what you ever do to me, I'm going to be here as if you are the best friend I have ever had.
