love
All you need is Love, and Love is all you need.
What's Love Got to do With It?
“And the final rose goes to...Becca!” The American reality television show The Bachelor has captivated audiences for nearly twenty years, and the fervor does not seem to be going away anytime soon. Obsession with romance is not a novel notion, however. Throughout time, literary works have been created with romance as the focal point of a big percentage of them. Unfortunately, the contemporary American “you do you, I’ll do me” attitude has corrupted romance; for most people, the individualistic, or self-centric, lens we Americans view all aspects of life through has turned love from a noble mission into a self-seeking, ego-boosting conquest.

Marriage is awesome for introverts
I met my wife in Las Vegas, NV. We both are not from there. I was selling pest control for the summer. She was working for the USGS and BLM out in the desert. She loves plants. We meet online. Our first date was Hibachi dinner and a family fun center where we rode go carts. We had a good time but it wasn’t love at first site. However, we did go on a few more dates and I got to like her. I decided to stay in Vegas and spray houses and keep dating her to see what was what. We fell in love and got married a year later. As an introvert, I like my me time. My wife is a great mix of introvert and extrovert. She has many friends. She is super chill and controls her emotions very well. She doesn’t get angry easily like me. We are both just chill.

You Say You Want LOVE, but is that really the Truth?
Many people say that all they really want is to “find love”. There are also many who deny true love even exists. But my suspicion is, regardless of which group you belong to, you don’t actually want “real love” at all.

human addiction
I have had relatively few relationships for my age, indeed one of the earliest produced children so it lasted 18 years. Now I am for the first time ever struggling to survive without my fiancé near me. My mental health is poor at the moment, but this need is all very different. I look forward to my odd days off when I have the house to myself, but soon after the day starts, I want her home again. This from someone who spent a while single and was happy in his own company.

To find myself
As I was growing up it was very difficult to be who I really was. My parents are very religious. Me on the other hand, not so much. So with that said I had always felt left out. People at the churches that we have went to have had there little groups. I was never first pick of anyone to hang out with.

The Colors of Duality
In search of meaning and attempts at understanding, my all-too-human mind then seeks to assign it value. I critically judge the things that I cannot yet comprehend in hopes of choking out its meaning. I pull the noose in a myriad of ways. By deeming part of it to be true and dismissing the other as false. By embracing the white to be good and shunning the black as an evil. And, of course, by traversing one path as the right one, never exploring the other because it is wrong.

There You Were
In a city that broke my heart over and over, I found you. With blue eyes, that sparkled when the sun hit them just the right way. With shoulders strong enough to rest my head on and cry a river. A heart so big, the grinch would be jealous of. baggage as large as my own, we could take a trip together. And with a little help from “the force” fate brought us together.

3 Things to Say to Your Spouse Every Day
My husband and I have only been married three years and together for five. It seems like an eternity for us but in comparison to those who have been married for decades, it can appear that we are quite fresh in the world of relationships.
