You sharpen the human capacity to the point where we can split atoms with our desire, we build egos the size of cathedrals, combine lust and love in a bowl and strained into this commercialized melodrama, we fiber-optically connect the world to every eager impulse, grease even the dullest dreams with these dollar-green, gold-plated fantasies, until ( Read more... )

This is definitely the best post I have ever read from you. For what it's worth, I guess what you were talking about is just life. Unless we build up our aspirations about love, life, and everything else, why is life worth living? Even when you hit the bottom point, it is that force inside you that tells you to keep going that makes us pick up the broken pieces of our dreams and re-examine every corner of them. I know that I have changed the course of my entire life from what I thought it would be a year ago. My dreams were shattered, but I could put some of the pieces back together and continue on with them. The others I changed the shape, but they are still my dreams...new and exciting.
Keep strong and know you will piece everything together. One day your dreams, love, everything will fall right into place. Love is like that damn last piece of the puzzle you can't find, but when you do...the whole thing makes sense, and every minute you spent searching for it was more than worth it.

Perhaps one of the most eloquent and beautiful entries I've ever read. Life is fucked up. The ones we choose to love the most are the ones that cut us the deepest, people we need the most never seem to stay for very long, and the idea of "falling in love" and living happily ever after IS just a fairy tale. BUT everything that is happening to you right now is happening in order to help you grow. With each heartache and broken friendship, with every person you love that dies or has to move away, you are changed. Maybe not for the better...but definitly for good. And the final result, the person you are the day you fall over dead is the culmination of every change that someone has put you through. Be grateful for each experience, be grateful for each person that makes you stronger, learn from your mistakes and take notes for next time. When you get dealt a bad hand you can either leave the table and walk away without taking any chances, or can you trade in your cards and see what happens. Personally, I love to gamble ( ... )

Blake I know I tell you this all the time, but just don't ever forget that you are one of the most amazing people anyone will or could ever hope to meet. I'm here for you if ever you get down.
