I just recently had a conversation with a friend about love. And we spoke about that feeling you get when you're so comfortable with someone it just feels like... you're home.
I know you know. And I just felt like bringing it up again.
For those of us who have truly, deeply, purely loved... there's no word quiet like... home.
"I may have loved, and I may have lust, but there's no one who has ever brought me home until I met you." Poetic, right?
I remember meeting Luke and okay, I'll admit. I didn't remember his name. How horrible am I?! But on our first encounter, we were pretty smitten. And I say that with twenty twenty hindsight. I don't know if this is how he remembers it, but I spent the evening fully aware of where he was and what proximity I was to him. I spent most of my time watching him (which I'm fairly certain he still doesn't know) and the rest giving my tokens to him *we were at a funplex* because I'm not a game person and have never been.
We pretty much hit it off and when he asked for my phone number I was floored. (I was not allowed to call any member of the opposite sex...my parents are old school)
I had to wait for him to call....Yep, it sucks!
But my point is not our first date, or the first thing he ever bought me, or our first kiss (which by the way has it's own story)... the point is that... he was the one and only one I could ever really be myself. I spill my guts. I let him know me inside and out and he still loved me. He loves me when I'm unlovable. And that .. to me... is Home.
So back to twilight... Christina Perri just released an amazing song called "A Thousand Years" and its on the new Breaking Dawn track list.
The new song?... um look down
Well, maybe I'm just feeling a little romantic... but whatever the reason... I do confess, I am a fan of Twilight. Yes, I agree, they're not for an intellectual read. But, it's an interesting love story.
