My Thoughts On Why Love Is Absurd

An attempt to explain my feelings.

My Thoughts On Why Love Is Absurd
Nadim Karam & Atelier Hapsitus

Love is awkward, confusing but most of all it's absurd. For me, love isn't one feeling, more it is an amalgamation of polar opposites fighting for control of your actions. Love is wholly and utterly absurd, and translating love into words isn't any easier when language is just as absurd and deficient. So here's my attempt to explain my feelings toward no one in particular.

I don't come across pretty girls often

The way I look at you, you'd think I was stalking you

Excuse my look I don't mean to gawk at you

It's just that you're too beautiful

To me

And don't think for a second

That I haven't learned a lesson

From all the girls before

Who looked, and acted just like you

Don't mean to be rude

I'm just a passerby

And it happens that you caught my eye

So let me take a good look at you

Girl

I don't look for personality

Personally it's the looks that attract me

If you can look pass my superficiality

I think we can make a good couple

Just know wherever I go

From coast to coast

Trouble always follows me

And I'll be the villain if it needs to be that way

As long as you know you can always count on me

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
