Deep thought

"The wave must realize that its reality, as a mere wave, is temporary. It may appear again and again as other waves, but in the end it has to realize that its reality lies not in its separateness as a wave, but in the ocean of which the wave is a manifestation. Realization of its true identity demands merging into the ocean and becoming one with it."
-Paramhansa Yogananda

Deep Thought

No tendency is quite so strong in human nature as the desire to lay down rules of conduct for other people.
William Howard Taft

don't care what love wants

I want to love you
I want to be with you
I want to support you
I want to experience the world with you
I want to make you happy
I want to share in your happiness
I want to grieve with you
I Want to cheer you up
I want to learn from you

I don't want to cry for no reason
I don't want to feel insecure
I don't want to always wonder when it will end
I don't want to wonder if you really want me
I don't want to feel like a fool
I don't want to feel fear when I think of you
I don't want to feel like my love is in vain
I don't want to need assurance that you still want to be with me

I realize I'm in over my head
I don't want to control you or this relationship
I just want to feel like I have some control over myself
I want to be happy and feel supported
I want to be loved

Love is never enough
because Love is everything
