My brain has frozen over and cold weather takes all the color out of the world.
I was pretty stupid last year, looking for someone to warm my thoughts over...
I think I'm doing better this time, but it's all only started and that wouldn't mean much anyway, damn it.
Stapleton was talking in Latin class today about how everything is transient. I don't remember how he got on that tangent, but he started off by saying that he didn't believe in having a "high school sweetheart," as he put it. He talked about how high school is over so quickly, and nobody marries their high school sweetheart anyway.
I don't disagree with Stapleton often (at least, not on things unrelating to translational technicalities), but... I don't care how transient high school is, really, because the present is moving so damn slow, even though the past and future are going a lot faster.
I still don't know about this whole "love" thing. I'd like to believe in it. I've gotten two relationships better at knowing what love isn't, and this brings me some encouragement that I might someday get it right. Regardless, if I'm in love, I'm not going to let any transiency bullshit stick to my shoes. Nobody in their right heart would.
I will do better this time.
