Thoughts

Friend of a friend's angst made me think.
What's the certainity of anything?
Theirs was a relationship that seemed to weather long distance, different cultures and outlooks.
It had seemed solid and it had seemed unbreakable.
And now it seems crumbled with faint glimmers here and there of hope.
Maybe there is no permanent certainity in life, or love
I look at the boy so far away in the hurricane infested land,
After almost 5 years of being together, i sometimes don't remember the whys and becauses of falling in love with him.
Our phone conversations are filled with old married couple topics of bills, investments, and more bills.
he doesn't think I am funny and sometimes I don' t get him.
He doesn't always remember the names of friends who live far away
And he never, ever, not regularly atleast, read my blog

Frantic call to Boy:
"Boy, why do you think I love you?"
"For my body"
"And you me?"
"Because I make good money"
"But do you think.....what are the core things that hold us together. Why do we love each other and why are we together? Will we always be together? Will what happened to them happen to us? What if things happen?"
"We deal with it and we work at it"

I can't explain it but that's why I love him.

It's not the big glittering lights that are the backbone to a relationship. It's the little things that do it for me. Because added up, the little things are bigger than the great big glittering lights.

Just saying.:)

'And you me?'
'Because I make good money'

He loves you because he makes good money, or you do?

This sounds more like answer to 'Why should I go on a shopping spree?" Lol...
