~Zelda Fitzgerald
should I draw you the picture of my heart it would be what I hope you would still love though it contained nothing new. The early possession you obtained there, and the absolute power you have obtained over it,leaves not the smallest space unoccupied..
~Abigail Adams
Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments.
Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:
O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wandering bark,
Whose worth's unknown,
although his height be taken.
Love's not Time's fool,
though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come:
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.
-Shakespeare
I’m no longer looking for my prince.
I’m looking for the princess that’s inside of me.
I want it to reign, and take root in my heart.
I realised that I’ve been searching for the wrong adventure.
The excitement and passion doesn’t last.
And I wonder why?
It’s the wrong adventure.
I’ve been searching for validation from Adam.
When I should be getting my answer from God instead.
How incredibly naive and stupid I was!

It's doesn't make sense does it?
three rather famous love letters/poems
and one blog post from a girl saying that
she was looking for the wrong adventure.
her adventure- finding her prince.
to be honest, who doesn't dream of having a prince charming sweep you off your feet?
but looking at those love letters,
i wonder if love had just become something that everyone seeks
not something that you find in yourself to give
not only to others but also to yourself
loving yourself,
easier said then done.
but i'm going to try.
i'm going to let go of the pretty dreams of that one guy
who knows all the right things to say
all the right things to do
and start to focus on becoming the best I can be
and believe that if it is in God's plan
to find that one guy,
I will meet him one day.
love.
maybe i just had the wrong perception the whole time.
