hullo!  uhm.  gah.  i hate that i only come on tumblr when i have absolutely no time to.  i just.  wanted to respond to a couple-a things in my neglected formspring on my neglected blog.

i would love you to begin posting again.
i like thought-provoking formsprings.
hmm.
the idea of love is always popular on tumblr.
but overused.
for sure.
do you think…it is possible to live a life of solitude and be happy? do you think everybody is happiest in the conventional marriage…or do people just do it…because it is expected (and not so painful as to seriously consider.. never getting married)?
have you ever thought about that?

it makes me sad that i don’t post so much anymore…  my camera kind of died.  and winter is my least favorite season.  and i have so much work.  they’re a bunch of lame excuses, i know.  but i like to post things that i’m thinking, things that are.  me, i guess.  i would hate to just start reblogging things from other people.  because then it wouldn’t be my blog, you know?

i agree, the idea of love is way overused, but i think it’s because so many people are looking for it, or want to believe that they’ve finally found it.  i would love to be in love; i just try not to post loads of stuff about it.  because it’s not going to happen while i’m sitting at my computer, and in all honesty i don’t think anyone cares too much.

i think it’s possible to be happy on your own if you’re that kind of person.  i have a number of friends that don’t believe in marriage, or don’t want to be married.  i’m also pretty religious, and i’ve known my fair share of very content nuns and priests.  if someone wants to live on their own, then they should; there’s no point in giving in to what society has deemed acceptable if they wouldn’t be happy.

personally, i want to get married some day.  i want to have a huge family with a man who’s also my best friend, because i wouldn’t want to raise my kids on my own.  i think that i’m going to be happiest in a conventional marriage.  with regards to everyone else, i’m not them.  so i can never really know.

i’ve definitely thought about this, before.  i’ve even considered being on my own, because sometimes i feel like i could do it and be relatively happy with just my friends and my work.  but i also know that there’s nothing that i want more in this world than to be a mom.  and that i’d be so much happier married than alone.

what do you think?

i think of him every time it rains

i don’t have a ‘him’ like that.  when it rains, i think about frogs and puddles and thunderstorms.  but i hope he thinks of you, too.
