Love is like the Sea

"Love is like the sea, leaves you on your knees first your floating high then it takes you under"-Alicia Keys

I'm finally beginning to understand why some people resolve to "eff luv". At first, I thought hmm maybe they've been hurt one too many times, (which still might be the case), but perhaps they've just become so exhausted like myself with trying to figure out the impossible.

Women speak in a much different language, or at least I do, and sometimes when I don't speak I expect my actions to. I admit it does require a little more patience, maybe some intuition and even a little compassion coupled with sensitivity to understand where I'm coming from. I hardly ever express my true feelings in any polished way, it usually comes out by way of some tempermental outburst. But geez read BETWEEN the lines, sometimes if a person gets to the point of becoming upset it usually suggests that they CARE!

I understand, some might say, who has time for this?, but time spent is always an indication of commitment. It builds character.

Case and point, when you attend university for example, no one really cares what your major or minor was. The fact that I minored in bioethics means little to my employer. What a university degree does say to employers however; is that you are a person commited to hard work. You have shown that you can dedicate yourself to a task and bring forth results. You are goal oriented, with a spirit of perserverance. A man who is willing to invest time in making a relationship work, translates into a man dedicated and commited to achieving results. It shows he cares about you, and is willing to take the time to get to know you for you.

My friend once told me "Rome was not built in a day Mama". I may not be the easiest person to understand, but a little patience goes a long way.
