Winter used to be unbearable till you came along.
The wind freezes my heart, my feet, my hands, my face, my ears, my everything, and your presence warm them, your hugs melt them, bringing them back to life again.

Finals week used to be unbearable till you came along.
Door to door 711 hotdog service at 5a.m in the morning, watching you cutting those pie charts and pasting them on to the poster board with your clumsy little fingers made me laugh. Knowing that I am not alone, my shoulder felt immensely lighter.

Most of all, my favorite part of the day is to fall asleep in your arms, and knowing that I will wake up the next morning, in your arms.

Honesty

Sometimes, we tell lies to protect the people we love.
On other occasions, we do so to protect ourselves from being hurt.
Often, these “other occasions” appear more frequently than the “sometimes”.
I am ashamed. I fear. I simply could not.

I admire people who are honest. I appreciate honesty.

Towards the end of psychology class on Friday, Dr. Foster said something that I will always remember. Not just the words, also the emotions that were evoked.

“ I love my wife so much that I married her knowing that she will die….when she does, I will be heartbroken. I was ready to risk the chances of having a heartbreak, because I love her.”

Silence filled the room.

That statement was not necessary to justify the lecture. Yet, he did so, with such sincerity and honesty. It was truly beautiful.
