Wow. That was pretty severe. Yes, I have those moments. You all know that. Little miss toughie tough crumbles a bit from time to time and just has to get it out. Well, it's out.
I've been listening to Florence on repeat a few days now. It's amazing how Dog Days Are Over (posted earlier) makes it impossible for me to sit still (I just have to dance or at least bust a shoulder move in the car) and makes my heart soar, while this song impels me to find the nearest heavy bag and pound until my fists are bloody or lace up the runners and hit the hills and never come back. She's an amazing writer and it's such a gift she has to be able to trigger such strong emotions, well, at least in me.
I think at times we've all felt heavy in someone's arms before. Like our love is a burden and not a gift. I'm learning, slowly but surely, that a) the trick is to just be true to your heart, be patient, and try to love without expectation or judgment for the sake of love itself and b) I prolly shouldn't listen to this song while drinking Malbec. :)
Peace, people, and oh yeah, love. <3

I love it when I say "I love you" on my own and not in response to Ed saying it to me. It somehow feels more genuine and real, like my brain officially recognizes the feeling behind the sentiment.
I just love that you're in love, Kat. :) To be able to experience that deep an emotion with anyone is a gift, I think. Love may not always be pretty, especially when it gets complicated by life and other emotions and things beyond our control, but when it's unadulterated, it's the most uplifting energy around. Makes me smile so big to know you're heart is bursting with it right now. xoxo
