Love Is Not Enough

04Nov06

I must be hormonal today because when I stumbled upon this quote, it reduced me to a sobbing ball of patheticness on my bed. ::sigh:: It sucks to be a girl.
——
“What I hadn’t understood, until recently, is that sometimes love is not enough. And that is the worst news-from-the-universe I have heard for some time … Love stretches us, but time often snaps us back to our original shape. Love takes us further than we thought we could go, but it does not take us past the limits of our nature. And that is a hard thing to know.”

Amy Bloom - in O magazine - February 2006

    Jaja, Rigo, sé q es exactamente lo que debería hacer, pero no es tan fácil. La mente hace lo q quiere y el corazón funciona así también.

    Creo q, por el momento, lo q tengo q hacer es dejar de pensar en el amor, como dijiste. Olvidemos la segunda parte, ok?? ;)
