Connections
I was coaching my friend on the art of game playing, in reference to his two week old relationship. Just like everyone, he hates when people plays games on him. I stated, “When it comes to playing games, it is automatic. To the player, its just the reality of doing what he has to do. To the playee, he needs to decide whether to take it or let it go. If he’s worth it. Take the game, and make your move.”
Of course, he’s above the game, and would never play games. Instead he decided to ignore the guy for a couple days and see if he calls him back. Let him make up his mind. See if he misses me. Of course I pointed out that he was playing the game of love himself.
“No I’m not” he replied, “I’m just giving him time”
“I told you, to the one playing the game, its not a game. Its dead serious!” I say, assuming I’m the smartest person ever.
“oh, I guess”, He grunts. See, I AM the smartest person ever. Well, at least let me think so.
Speaking of games of love. My roomate had his fuckbuddy/friend/guy he’s “seeing”, call him his boyfriend today. Of course, this gave him quite a shock, because he’s been slutting around lately without a second thought towards how seriously this guy felt about their relationship. Of course, Jason’s right. They’ve only known each other for two weeks. How could they possibly be in love, or even think about being officially boyfriends. Honestly, I think Jason his almost head-over-heals for the guy but is afraid to reject his single, swinging life for some guy who happens to live a two hour drive away. Jason, SEX ISN’T EVERYTHING! Sometimes I worry about you and your need for it. Is that where your self esteem comes from? Settle down, and fall in love.
Savannah from work has fallen into the deepest, most innocent puppy love. Yes, my two favorite mormons are gone with the wind towards the land of happy ever after. Savannah shines with a light I’ve never known. Like the angels on that tv show that light up with a glow that comes from nowhere when they reveal their true nature as angels. She is one of those people that I made an instant, immediate connection with. She will be one of those people that touches my life and leaves to touch anothers life. Disappearing, again, like an angel. She told me today that after two weeks of dating, her and her love are planning to get married. I believe her. There is a glow in the air around them I’ve never known before. I know they are meant to be together even more than they do. They are beautiful, they are one. Just witnessing this love made me joyful. There’s something about these two. Perhaps angels do exist. Shoot, I thought I was an atheist!
Let me tell you, if an angel showed up and found me a man, not a perfect man, but one that will make me glow like Savannah, with that look in her eyes, I will eat a bible and digest its every word into memory!
Isn’t it amazing what can happen in two weeks. I wonder what I’ll be doing in two weeks. Will I be in love? Will I be confused? Will I be scared to be called a boyfriend? All of the above?
Why question it. Just stand back from life and enjoy the connections, and puzzles that continualy fall into place, and the order that scatters into a million puzzles. Laugh at the absurdity of chaos….preach to yourself.
