I watch my grandparents who have been married 51 years and my other grandparents who will be married 50 years in February. Then I watch as my close family falls apart. Three of my aunts are getting divorced or are in the process, so it makes me wonder… Is romance dead? Or have times just changed?
As a somewhat young person who has been dating someone for more than a year I look back and remember how romantic he was, he still is sometimes don’t get me wrong but I wonder nowadays once a guy gets a girl and he knows its steady is it right to just throw romance out the window?

How do you know which person you are supposed to spend your life with? How did my grandparents know that the person they married would be their life partner? I have watched my grandparents fight and I just laugh it off because they are well old, Italian and well they enjoy yelling at everyone its how they are. However when I watch my parents or younger couple (married or dating) fight I become scared thinking that something may happen. I remember when I was kid and listening to my parents having a “discussion” as they would call it and I would get scared thinking that maybe one day something bad would happen.

Young couples fight all the time sometimes its healthy cause its a way of expressing how a how you really feel sometimes. Sometimes fighting is liberating it feels like a weight has been lifted off but sometimes it feels like another 10 weights have been put back on.

Romance I’m hoping is not dead. I just want to know theres a future with someone that I love and care about. That in the future there will be romantic times, happy & fun times, and fighting times but nothing will break us.
I just want to know that romance is not dead that spontaneous moments are still alive and well and waiting to be used up.

I was listening to my prof talk today about the environment he brought up that Canadian scientists had just won a Nobel Peace Prize. It got me thinking…… Why didn’t we hear anything about this. Nothing in the Toronto Star, Toronto Sun, nothing anywhere… Ohhh wait there was a 5 min blip about it on 680 news and that was it. My prof informed the class to check out Rick Mercer’s blog, so i did and i found the blog titled “Science: 21st century menace“now when i finished reading this i was absolutely appalled for two reasons. 1. That a group of Canadian Scientists were not recognized for their work with Al Gore in helping to save the environment and 2. Because Stephen Harper refused to show up and present the award to these scientists and he didn’t allow any of the cabinet members to attend this ceremony either.

Now here are my questiona: Why the hell was there no public notification or praise brought to these scientists? And what the hell is the government so ashamed of that they cannot attend this reception?

Like anyone else, I just want answers.

If you would like to read about it check out: http://www.rickmercer.com/blog/index.cfm and look for the title Science:21st century menace.

Why? It is one of the most commonly used word today. Everything that happens is always followed by a why? Why did this happen? Why did this have to happen? Why did this have to happen to me? And the answer is never answered, and never know to us. It is never the easiest to answer either. why is it that? Who’s to say.
I wonder is it possible to go through life never questioning the outcome of different situations?

People always say….. “Everything happens for a reason” and i believe that, I believe that everything I have set out to do that in some way that may be wrong there is something that is bound to happen to pay me the consequence. In some way i wonder…… do my consequences cause others close to me harm
If so…..I am forever sorry……

I don’t enjoy watching them part ways, but it happens to be the right thing to do. For she will never be able to let him go, and he is at that place where the other one matters more to him than the girl that fell out of lust and into love……

She took a chance with her heart and let him hold it for a while…. He held on tight and told her he would never damage it like the others have…… It was a chance she was willing to take……

He convinced her to take that chance, and with that chance, she will have to live with the pieces he left her heart into. But somehow through it all she will make it…. With or without him….

We are given certain opportunities in life, a major one i find is the chance to fall in love. Maybe not even falling in love, but maybe the transition of falling out of lust and into love. There is a specific moment in a relationship when you know that this is it…. This is what I have been waiting to find…..But just when you believe you found it, things start to change, but not just a little, they start to change drastically an all you can think is why?

Relationships are one of those things that no matter what they will always be a challenge, whether it is trying to figure the person out or trying to read their mind, it becomes a battle of stress. And then all of a sudden the battle ends and you part ways, you finally realize that the battle was never needed.

Take care

Why is it that people listen to conversations and find the need to spew around a misconstrued version of what they heard?

I don’t and don’t think I ever will understand why people say or poke there nose in anyones conversation. And if you are going to spew the “word” around make sure you understand clearly what was said, nothing is worse then thinking you know whats happening between two people.
