talking about love?;; have you ever felt that feeling in your heart, when you know you've met the love of your life and you can't help but think about them everyday? this feeling has overwhelmed me lately. not just with boys; but loving my friends, family, and just the overall world. i remember a time when love meant nothing to me. i didn't much care for it because i was afraid. afraid that i would love and lose yet again...that attachment---that would then be gone in as quick as a second? no, i couldn't go through that pain again. love is too much of a risk, that's what i felt at the time. since then i have learned to look fear in the eyes and think "i have this one life and with it, i will live to the fullest; nothing and nobody will get in the way of it. i can't be afraid of what might happen or what may never happen!" thus, for me love had started to grow. love: one of the most confusing, devastating, yet most exhilerating feelings in the world. smile --Katrina.
