Tranatlanticism

Love can save people. I'm not talking about the feeling; I'm talking about the action. Caring for someone no matter what, even if they're rude, sick or detestable. If I can learn how to love, there'll be hope for me. It's easy to be nice back to those who are nice to you, it's hard to be nice to those who aren't nice back.

When was the last time someone did something entirely selfless for you? Do you remember how it felt to be thought of despite the person having absolutely no reason to?

I remember in sec 2 I was sharing some ravioli with my friends and one girl whom I didn't like asked for a piece. She was the bitchy snobby kind; I wouldn't call her popular because I can't really tell how many people liked her. VERY reluctantly I let her have some, only to be slammed by her the next day. Now that I think about it, if I didn't let her eat the ravioli, it'd give her reason to think that I was a vindictive asshole. So yeah, it was one of the hardest things to do, but at least I can say that I did the right thing.

Fast forward 5 years. Have I become her? Pretty much I think. And it sickens me. God has given me so much lately; I don't wanna take any of it for granted.
