Heartfelt Confessions

They're beautiful.  They're also a bitch.  Although, inexplicably, you feel a lot better once you've gotten them off your chest.  Here I go.

Lately, I've been doing a lot of thinking.  Trying to sort out some weird feelings I've been having.  Even though they're my feelings, I really can't make as much sense of them as I'd like to.  But here's what I've figured out:

To me, what I seek in relationships isn't so much a physical connection as an emotional one.  Someone I can spill all my secrets to, not just make out with.  Lately, I've been noticing a certain person about once a day around 10:12 in the morning.  At first it was recognition, but now it's become what I guess you might call attraction.  Not completely romantic attraction, but the other definition too.  A feeling of being drawn toward something.  Or someone.  

This certain attractive person happens to be a girl as well.  

This is where it gets complicated.  It seems I find myself "attracted" (again, in the drawn to sense not the romantic sense) to a different people all the time, and I really can't explain why.  It's so strange I can't even come up with a good metaphor for it.

Maybe this will be explained soon.  Maybe not.  All I know is it's probably just a phase, or hormones, or something.

Most likely no one will ever read this, much less anybody who knows me.  But it just feels good to feel like I'm telling someone.  Sometimes just talking to a wall that won't say anything back or think differently about you is just what you need.

Decency

Today, May 2nd, 2011, Osama bin Laden was killed by US troops in Pakistan.  All over the country people celebrated and danced in the streets.  Justice had been done.

This news made me happy and sad at the same time.  I'm extremely happy that bin Laden can no longer do harm to us, and I'm happy that we are now significantly safer than we were.

But it also makes me sad the way some people are reacting to this news.  Even though he was responsible for incomprehensibly terrible crimes, the fact remains that he was a person just like the rest of us.  Yes, he had different views on things than we do.  Even though he may have done things going against your every value, just imagine how you looked to him.

The point is, we're all different.  That is what makes us humans, and that is why we are beautiful.

I implore you not to take this the wrong way, but I do have respect for anyone who stands up for what they believe in.  That is why I wish people would act just a little more decently.  Don't celebrate an enemy's death, celebrate our safety.  =)
