Some Assembly Required.
As I was washing the dishes, pondering all the mishaps of the day behind me, Nica said something that started my brain on one of its random tangents that it can't just forget. "I surround myself with broken people." Just a statement made, but a comment later and I was on the road to writing this post. Just because we haven't found who we are supposed to be yet doesn't mean we are broken, it simply means that all our pieces haven't made their way into place yet. Some people with those pieces haven't made their way into our lives. The nuts and screws of realization haven't occurred and come into being yet. They aren't there to take all the piled chaos of who we are and make it into the wonderful masterpiece we were meant to be. If you don't want to take the time to wait out our construction and development, then you can give us our piece/peace and be on your way. We aren't broken, we simply need assembled.

Roses
For some one who hates roses I sure do have a lot of them.
" You hate the smell, not the look." You stated back in a matter of seconds. With that one statement, my mind started on a whole new tangent. I love the idea of things, but when it actually comes time for these things to be put into place, I'm not so sure anymore. I love seeing things, agreeing with them, talking about how wonderful they are. However I hardly go into the process to go after these things. Take love for instance, I enjoy the idea of finding that one person I want to spend the rest of my life with, but I don't have the feel for that sort of commitment. It might not be the fact that I don't even have the commitment but that I am too terrified to go after what I truly want in life. I want you, all of you. I want you forever. The thing is I'm to scared to admit that to myself half the time, let alone admit that to you. All I really want is for you to realize I actually love roses. Sure they stink, but anything good in life always does, it's hard, it takes effort, and you may get pricked by a thorn here or there, but in the long run, it's always worth it.
