I know two couples personally, both of which contain people my age, who have been together 9 years and going strong. One of the couples is my cousin & her boyfriend. They're absolutely adorable and hilarious. I'm happy they're still together. The other couple makes me proud. It's between my best friend and bestfriend-in-law. I introduced them. ;) Needless to say, just having these two couples to look up to, how can I not believe in love?! :)

Have faith, it exists.

I wonder why it's so much more difficult for me to sleep when I'm alone. Maybe it's because I'm running on endless thoughts when no one is here distracting me. I don't really know, but I do know that I'm SO tired. I wish so many things. I don't know what the right thing to do is right now. Whether or not I should say something or allow him the time to see for himself. Or change myself. I was so irritated for days and in a matter of seconds, I just forgot. It's always that simple with him. When he's near me, I can't help but smile and feel at ease. I know that God will show me in time. I seem to always zigzag through patience. One moment I'm there, and the next I can't seem to wait for anything. I am terribly confused at the moment. With myself. With him... us. With the world. I suppose, though, that it'll always be this way to an extent. I will always be lost or confused about something. I want to sleep but I feel like I won't for a while.
