So I got this from a friends Xanga page and I absolutely thought it was great and I wanted to share it. I really didn't edit it and its just how he wrote it. So there ya go...
"Someone asked me the other day if I have ever been in love... Then I talked about the variations of love... Like... I LOVE David Letterman, classic lays potato chips, leather couches, regular nintendo (obviously due to my journal entry right below this one), hanging out with people that influence me, going to belmont, leading worship, singing, steak, food in general, listening to jake laugh, watching jake play paperboy, coke, water, anything grilled, driving to see a special someone, seeing a special someone, having a special someone, and I'm sure marrying a special someone... There are a lot of things to take in consideration before you say, "I love you". Is it just a friend that you adore, a car that gets you from A to B, or is it that someone that, time after time, after a long awaited answer from God, rocks your world and makes your body numb? I say, "I love you" a lot... When I hang up the phone and I'm talking to Pete or anyone else I am close to and have been for a really long time, I will say, "I love you". I really mean it... In no way do I want to marry Pete however... Now... When I get in my car in the morning or whenever, I am at one with the road... It is like a car commercial... I would say that I love my car... In no way, once again, would I marry my car! What if God gave you one chance with certain people... One moment to grab a smile... Would you take it in desperation of finding the one girl/guy you are meant to be with for the rest of your life? Would you seemingly follow your heart in order for it to potentially get hurt or would you just have fun and let things progress? I have had problems in my past allowing people to get within my heart a little too fast, or at all for that matter... The words "I love you" will not be coming out of my mouth until I ask her to marry me... What a great day that will be... My heart will truely be to my knees, my breath shortened, and my mind, for the first time probably in my life, clear... It will be a special thing... To all of you out there that pour everything and anything into a relationship that is about two weeks deep, you need to stop... seriously! It isn't worth it... Devote your time into your friends and your life up until marriage will be a success as well... Devote your spirit to being with God daily... In fact... Give this part of your life to Him and He will bless you beyond comprehension. I was able to take a year off from dating anyone and it was the best decision of my life... Do I still have flaws? Yes... Do I have everything figured out? No... Do I understand what it will take to love someone? Not entirely... Do I understand what love is? No... I believe love will probably be a fullness... You know when you get chills running up the back of your neck... well you can always grab the back of your neck and get the chills to stop... With love I don't think it will be quenched…"
So thats all I have for tonight cause thats long enough. But I just thought that ws great...
