The Scary Part About Falling In Love Is Not Knowing If The Other Person Will Be There To Catch You

Everyone wants to find love. It is an aspect of human existence that we cannot live without. We crave love and as we get older we want to find the person to spend our lives with and time seems to start ticking.

As we go through relationship after relationship it tends to end in the same way, with a shattered heart. You put your trust in someone and let them into your life and they abuse that trust and abandon you. That leaves you with a broken heart and trust issues, making it harder and harder to trust people.

We build up walls making it harder and harder to let people in with every passing relationship.

Falling in love is terrifying. You are making yourself vulnerable and letting someone into every aspect of your life. The sucky part is, you never know if the other person feels the same way, if they are falling at the same rate that you are or if they are even falling at all.

The scary part about falling in love is that you never know if the other person will be there to catch you.

It is hard to find a great relationship and someone who will stay in your life and not leave you heartbroken. We get to a point where it is hard to keep going. Sick of getting our hearts broken over and over again, having to constantly pick up the pieces on our own. To take that risk once again is a terrifying thought. You start to doubt yourself. What if I am not good enough? What if they do not love me back? What if I am setting myself up for another heartbreak? All of these questions come flooding in when someone new walks into your life.

Falling for someone is a risk that you are going to have to make because if you don't, you will never know. Without taking the risk you may never find the happiness you are looking for. You do not want to miss out on finding the person you are meant to spend your life with because of fear. It is through other relationships, failed relationships that we learn to know what we deserve.

But one day you will find that person who will make you the happiest you can be, and they will stay. God will give you the person that you are meant to spend your life with. You will have the life that you have been dreaming of. You will have the fairytale type of love, the type of love that you can only imagine, the one that you have always wanted.

The Lord will heal your broken heart, he will give you what you need, and when the time is right, he will give you the perfect person for you to spend your life with. Sometimes it takes a little heartbreak to grow and learn to find the right relationship that we need.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
