Love

People dive into blow holes, jump from a speeding boat to water planes, run miles on end, jump off a cliff and learn how to tango.

For love.

Some people don't.

Sometimes in life and love, you don't get what you want but it doesn't mean you don't deserve them.

We all dream of that one person that'll do anything and everything for you, because of you. And you would be the reason for all that is great in him, and only bring out the best in him.

I'm a hopeless romantic, emotionally high maintenance and fiercely loyal to those who has my trust.

And I know one day, someone will also say to me that famous line from As Good As It Gets, (or something along that line..)

"I might be the only person on the face of the earth that knows you're the greatest woman on earth. I might be the only one who appreciates how amazing you are in every single thing that you do, and how you say what you mean, and how you almost always mean something that's all about being straight and good. I think most people miss that about you, and I watch them, wondering how they can watch you pass by and never get that they just met the greatest woman alive.."

This is a new stage in my life. There won't be people jumping off a ship after me nor will there be anyone who would run into a burning building for me. There is no more love. I have to accept that. But, I will always have the type of love that will come to you when you feel all is hopeless, or when you sob yourself over something that hurts so bad.

And for that I'm grateful.

And for that I still believe in love..
