Love-- it does a wonder of things. It is what sent Jesus Christ to die on the cross and to rise again. It is what feeds the hungry children of Africa. It is what makes a father smile as he holds his daughter's hand. It can make us go to hell and back. It can make us go to heaven and back.
It is the one thing that scares us yet we all still long for it. Some of us can't handle it when we find it, some of us can't recognize it when its present, some of us don't trust it, and some of us are completely blessed when we find it. It can make the most difficult thing seem a little easier, and it can make the most simplest thing so hard to do.
For those who never find love, I cry for you. For those who haven't found love yet, keep looking but know that love comes when it needs to. For those who already have love, know how blessed you are and enjoy it for all it is worth. For those of you who have lost love, know that the strength you'll find in losing love will pull you'll through.
Here's to love and all of its' forms.

Kathleen! Hey girl! It's Jayme. Um, I was always asking for the toilet paper in Sikes last year when you worked the desk. Still don't remember me? Um, I write for The Optimist. Um, I'm Kim Smith's younger sister... um. Well, anyway, let me just say... Why haven't I known about your blog all these years?! lol... "years" I absolutely LOVE it girl. My two biggest passions in life are God, first and foremost, and writing. It overwhelms me with joy when I find someone who writes and loves it as much as myself! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and emotions. I have read numerous posts on your blog and I've only just discovered it! Keep writing, please! I am now a faithful reader. :) God bless girl.
Always,
Jayme Smith
p.s. I am also a walking contradiction.
