Love. Like Matt White says in his song is..."such a silly game we play...like a summer's day in May...What is love? What is love?" Or maybe love is when you find your "Soulmate". In that point, Natasha Bedingfield is right. "Who doesn't long for someone to hold, who knows how to love you without being told?" Yap! Love is pretty much all around. In songs.In movies. In books. You can't cross the street without seeing a cute couple holding hands, him whispering sweets words in her ear, her getting all blushed and shy. Don't get me wrong! Love is beautiful! I actually love "Love"! Still, it's a little bit depressing when you're all alone thinking about that guy who's probably having the time of his life and never thinks about you...it sucks! I mean, all the romance around you forces you to remember your own pathetic situation. But the worst thing is that when you're down, you actually feel like watching those romantic comedies and listening to those lame songs. You mope around, doing nothing and hoping that confort food will make it all go away. Sad, isn't it? Well...we all feel like that at one point or another in our lives.
But I like John Mayer's version of life and love...check it out.
I tried every approach to living, I tried it all. I haven’t tried everything, but I’ve tried every approach. Sometimes you have to try everything to get the approach the same. But…
I tried it all. I bought a bunch of stuff, I went, no, I don’t like that. I kind of came in and out of that a couple of times.
Thought I would shut myself off. I thought maybe that’s cool, maybe that’s what you have to do to be a genius is you have to be mad. So if you can get mad before the word genius, then maybe you can make genius appear. Right? That doesn’t work either.
I’m in a good place. I’ve paced myself pretty well. I’m thirty, I’ve seen some cool stuff. Made a lot of stuff happen for myself. I made a lot of stuff happen for myself. That’s a really cool sentence when you’re in your twenties, “I made it happen for myself man.”
But all that means is that I’ve just somehow found a way to synthesize love, synthesize soothing… you can’t get that.
And what I’m saying is that I’ve messed with all the approaches except for one. And it’s going to sound really corny, but that’s just love. That’s just love. I’ve done everything in my life that I want to do except just give and feel love for my living.
And I don’t mean like a roman candle, firework, Hollywood, hot pink love. I mean like a “I got your back!” love.
I don’t need to hear I love you. You guys love me, I love you, we got that down.
Some of the people who will tell you they love are some of the people who will be the last just to have your back.
So I’m going to experiment with this love thing. Givin’ love, feelin’ love. I know it sounds really corny, but it’s the last thing I got to check out before I check out.
Hey guys!! Stick around and you might see something you like. Just let me know...
