  1. I have been thinking about Love a bit lately, I haven’t told anyone cos it might annoy them, but here goes anyhow! 🙂

    I was thinking about how in a relationship there are 2 people, and one has his consciousness and the other hers, and how when one addresses the other, they assume the other is the lesser half in a way, (like an accessory or optional extra) and how super it would be if both recognised each other fully? Or more fully perhaps? Well that may seem obvious, but a lot of people fall in love because they feel they understand the other person, but is that really an assumption? A conclusion in itself? how to negate that would be to actually feel something! LOL, I sound like a monster now, but sometimes feelings are overpowering and other times way more distant, like one has something to explore or gain within oneself – there are just so many aspects to it all. I’m babbling a bit here, I lost my thread, but I’m getting some of what I wanted to say down.

    More as a response to the words above, I’m thinking how as we get older, (or at least perceive we are) the mystery of love hopefully evolves into looking back on a life lived, and the realisation that was “what it was” and its beautiful, “what was never found” was actually an amazing journey?

    1. OF, I meant to thank you for that wonderful photo essay you sent me! You spend so much time, and this past week I had little. Yes; that “falling in love” thing. I’ve pretty much had it, with that. Why? Because it IS one – sided! Or, it usually is. I think that, when it is equally strong in the two people, it’s just chemistry – pure and simple. And, when the chemistry has run its course, there is n.o.t.h.i.n.g. Falling in love is SO MUCH about personal need, and what we think we see in another. But, what we think we see is never really there. Yeah. I’m in stark clarity this morning. Had a crushing night last night, so at 8 in the morning on a Sunday, well, yeah; there will be clarity.

      1. Bit too much clarity! IMO lust isn’t so bad as all that, I see it as a surrealist key – very hypnotic, could be shallow, could be deep, I don’t know, I haven’t given it much thought, like a lot of things! LMAO – I’m such a moron!!

        Don’t worry about the photo essay, it was uploaded for others a while ago, keeping in touch with family and friends etc

        Your pretty smart, I’m not worried about you at all, I love this blog! 🙂

  2. Oh, wow. Thank you, OF. I’m so glad you’re reading me. I just ate a peanutbutter and raisin slice, sitting in my jammies waiting for the henna to set, watching the Emmys and reading that you love my blog. I have reason to be happy. 😀

    1. Peanut butter and Raisin you say? That sounds very odd! Sounds like you enjoyed it tho 🙂

      The layout of replies and comments seems to have some sort of system to them, I’m using a large screen, the layout may be different on a phone.
