Love and misc. alcohols.


Poets and movies talk about love when it's great. When you fall in love with someone the 1st or 2nd or 13th time, it's magical and sweet, and no one would deny its all over goodness. However love, I have found is often in the moments when your partner is crying, and you want to cry with them, you want to make them feel better, you want to fix everything wrong in their life no matter the cost to you. I have been married 11 years, and this is one of the most astonishing moments of love.

Now maybe you feel this way towards lots of people. I am probably not as "good", or compassionate a person as you. But I do feel this when ever my wife cries. It makes me happy and sad all at once.

Love.

sometimes...

Wow.
