ANOTHER LOVE POST.. ohh dear, for a girl who is so ANTI LOVE; I think it is by far my favorite subject, IT IS FASCINATING. For being an almost REVOLTING subject, it's a vast concept that I hardly understand, but I love to attempt.
Okay, this this quote comes to us from the always wonderful, simply brilliant WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE. Anyways, all dramatics aside, (see? mental girl here.)
I think now in todays society, love (the confused deranged version of it at least.) Is based, driven in fact by looks, not by whats inside, people so often look at the surface and see a pretty face with no substance, some see the inside first, and that, when it does happen (although not often) is beautiful. Simply beautiful and wonderful.
I mean, everyone looks at the face, the face is the first thing you see, and then if you don't like the face, then generally you won't make it a point to get to know the rest of the wonderful, amazing person that they are.
I guess long story short, it just go's back to the old saying, DON'T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER. I bet, you've probably heard that a million times, but even Shakespeare said it, so it must be true, I want someone who has substance, in fact I need that. I crave someone who can match my wit with his own. I want to interesting conversations, something with real meaning. If it's all just a bunch of fluff and nonsense then I think I would drive myself absolutely crazy. BONKERS in fact. I need that, I can't just have a pretty face, it needs to have something behind it. Something that would intrigue me to stick around.
So I like puzzles you see, I'm the girl who will stay in on a perfect Saturday night to work on a puzzle, I get teased about it; yes but they are like food for my brain. Normally I'll do something like an angel puzzle, or a silly little golf course one, but anyways, what I choose to do with my time, however stupid is my choice. More intriguing are PEOPLE puzzles, people who are guarded, or people who've been hurt and they choose to close up and become defensive, they, are the most interesting puzzles in the whole world, layers upon layers or damage, or hurt, either way, they are the most fascinating people on the planet.
I have a friend like that, different and guarded, he drives me mental at times, but I can't help but care, I really can't help but feel for him. Okay the thing is, with puzzles you MUST take care of them, treat them for what they are, difficult, this go's for cardboard and for people, especially people. I have to gentle with him, I have to use patience and discernment, because one wrong move and I would mess the whole thing up, if I'm not careful I can hurt him, and it's so easy.
You know how puzzles come in different numbers of pieces? yah so do people, some people have puzzles of only a hundred pieces and some of more like 200 and so of and so forth, my friend is like a puzzle of ONE MILLION pieces. Every move you make to try to put him back together the piece doesn't fix and you have to go back and look for the correct piece, you almost never find the correct answer (piece) and you will literally drive yourself mad.
Every once in awhile, a great while, a piece though comes into place, and it makes sense. An answer has been found, one layer is gone, and when that happens, I become so happy; it really does make me happy, and it takes a lot to actually make me happy or smile, but this guy does, so when a piece or two has been fitted properly, it's amazing.
People are like puzzles, the mind needs puzzles. LOVE is the greatest puzzle that anyone will ever attempt to solve; not even some of the greats figured it out, I know I'll never be able to fully understand it. So the long story short, (and now I will conclude) that "Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind"
