| Is love blind? Sometimes you see the person you love do things you don't like, bad things that you disagree with, but you don't judge them... because you truly love them. Maybe they lie, cheat and steal but they are still good people, right? YOU know the true person they are, and that person is good, right? Which brings us to the question: what matters more, a person's actions, or who they "are"? Are the two even different things?
I just don't know... I guess love really is blind. When you're happy with a person, you like to ignore all the bad things that go on around you. You tend to close your eyes to their faults and the warning signs that say "this is not a good person." Sometimes, those signs shouldn't be ignored but taken at their face value, without emotion blindsiding us, as in "CAUTION: this might not work out."
Maybe they deserve a second chance and you are right in forgiving. God teaches forgiveness, right? Everyone deserves a second chance, a third chance, and a 5 millionth chance, if they truly repent and acknowledge their mistakes. Everyone makes a mistake now and then, and when I look at myself, I wouldn't want to be judged solely by my outward actions. I've lied many a time, and I wouldn't want to be viewed as a liar. Instead, there are motives behind the things I do... does that count for anything?
I don't like to think of myself as weak or naive, but maybe being optimistic, hoping for the best, and putting all my trust into one basket is a good thing. Sometimes we just have to take a leap of faith and hope for the best. Love is not a contemplative action but an emotional one. Maybe that's what makes it subject to blindness.

| Isn't it weird when someone says they love you, and you think they do... but their actions are just so confusing? Love should be a stable, secure thing that you never have to question... and usually it is. But there are times when outside disturbances rear their ugly heads and make you wonder, does he really care about you as much as he says he does. Does anything matter except how he treats you? Is it all just point of view, and are my actions equal to his? All I really want is for life to be simple, and sweet. Maybe things are simple, I just make them complicated.

| Henry: Is there only one perfect mate? And if so, how can you be
certain to find them? And if you do finally find them, are they really
the one for you or do you only think they are? And what happens if the
person you're supposed to be with never appears, or she does, but
you're too distracted to notice?
Leonardo: You learn to pay attention.
Henry: Then let's say God puts two people on Earth and they are lucky enough to find one another. But
one of them gets hit by lightning. Well then what? Is that it? Or,
perchance, you meet someone new and
marry all over again. Is that the lady you're supposed to be with or
was it the first? And if so, when the two of them were walking side by
side were they both the one for you and you just happened to meet the
first one first or was the second one supposed to be first? And is
everything just chance or are some things meant to be?

| I haven't been on this xanga this whole school year. I wonder who
actually comes back to read it, only to find I haven't updated. Haha,
oh well hopefully people will still read my xanga :) although it
doesn't matter too much, I'm just going to like writing.
Just got back from my first year of college... in a lot of ways it was
what I expected to be, even in some surprising ways. It's satisfying to
finish my first year of college, albeit very intimidating and somewhat
confusing. It's made me think about my future- what do I really want to
do? And when I say I'm going to pursue business as my future career,
what does that really mean? I don't want to be a CPA or some other
administrative person... honestly, that kind of thing bores me, as fun
as accounting seems right now. "Business" is such an ambiguous and
all-inclusive field, I really don't know what direction I'm headed in.
It scares the shit out of me. After taking a management fiat lux about
the line of work I want to pursue, I've suddenly realized starting a
business or making a big splash in the business world is not as easy as
it seems. In fact, it's starting to seem like something college can't
prepare you for. The biggest businesspeople didn't rely wholly on their
college education to get somewhere; it seems like most of them had a
stroke of genius or luck or whatever it is that gets you a multimillion
dollar company. It's a scary idea that after college and possibly
business school, I still won't be ready for what's out there.
Also, my parents are having a pretty big fight, as usual. And seeing
their unhappiness really makes me wonder what kind of life I want to
pursue. Definitely not one where I'm constantly bickering or unhappy
about the choices I've made. Somehow, you've got to get yourself to a
place without regrets. That seems near-impossible with the amount of
factors you have little or no control over.
The future is a scary thing.
