George lassoes the moon
I know that I've been whiney all week and you're probably very tired of hearing it. Thing is, I don't care. This is my place to get things off my chest.
I just read one of my blog subscriptions and there was a part about staying in bad relationships. Granted I only read the first page of comments, still no one brought up the real reason behind it. Some people stay because they are too scared to be alone. One of my favorite quotes comes from Some Kind of Wonderful. "I would rather be with someone for the wrong reasons than alone for the right. " I don't agree with it, but some people do feel that way.
Anyway, I want to end on an up note this week. I heard for a long time when looking for something make a list. Make it exactly what you want in your search. This is this the list I compiled for the person I want to spend the rest of my life with.
Honesty. Compassion. Loyalty. Respect. Intelligence. Stability. Empathy. Romantic. Sense of humor. Open minded. Courteous. Loving. Kind. Caring. Communications skills. Vulnerable. Strong. Tender. These are for himself, those in his life, and the world around him. I want him to have spirit and a love of life. I want him to have a huge heart and know how to use it. I want him to pay attention to the little things. Of coarse the basics of just having things in common helps. Such as goals, future wants, and values. I'm not stupid enough to expect likes and dislikes to be all the same, but once again a few in common help. I want him to be able to smile at my quirks. I want to bring out the very best in him. I want him to love me for me, good, bad, and ugly.
From my world of make believe. I want him to want to offer me the world. He doesn't have to give it to me, or even be able to, but just to want to. I want to be worth the fight. This has been a long time wish. They all make it look so easy to walk away from me. At the end of the day, I want him to believe that I hung the moon and stars.
You come to love not by finding the perfect person, but by seeing an imperfect person perfectly.
