I was bored. So I read stuff and here's to share what I liked. :)
Love by Amanda Norton
Love is something that is not easily explained
No one word can express it
And no one person feels the same about it
It’s waking up in the morning wanting to be with that one person
And going to bed feeling the same way
It’s knowing that you want to spend the rest of your life with him
And it’s a feeling so great that no matter what anyone says will never be taken away
It’s crying every night when the one you love doesn’t love you back
It’s feeling that pain in your heart when you lose that one person.
But to just hear those three little words come from his mouth
And actually know he means it
That’s the best feeling in the world
To know that someone loves you for you
And wants to be with you forever
Love is hard to find, and even harder to keep
It takes time and effort to keep it going
But you don’t mind because you would do anything in the world to keep it
It’s knowing that when you come home you’ll have someone to share your day with
It’s that last conversation of the night before you fall asleep
He’s the first one you want when you wake up
The only thing that’s on your mind all day, every day
It’s knowing that someone’s always there for you to cry on
Someone’s always there for you to talk to about anything
And won’t judge you for that
It’s the person you feel the most comfortable with in the world
And to know that you have that
That you share that special bond with one other person
That’s the best feeling in the world.
But when you lose that feeling
When you lose the only thing that ever mattered to you
It seems like life has no purpose, no point at all
You feel like you could just curl up and die
That nothing or no one else matters to you
And the only thing that you’ve ever wanted is now gone
And you will do anything to get him back,
Because he’s worth it
You’ll try and try until one day you realize
That things will never be the same again.
Your love is still there, deep inside of you
So you try your best to just be friends,
And it works for a while
But the feelings are still there
And no matter how hard you try friend will never be good enough
So you want to forget about him, but that’s even harder
There’s too many memories, to many good times to just forget
And no matter what you do, he’s always there
Everywhere you look, everything you do, every place you go,
Every song you hear, every guy you see
Reminds you of him
And you hope some day you’ll be back together
But until then there’s nothing you can do
But sit and cry, to go through that pain when he talks about
Another girl he likes, or how good his life is going
And that pain breaks your heart day after day
Tear after tear, until you have no mores tears to cry
Until you just get used to that hole in your heart that won’t go away,
That pain that never leaves you
That lonely feeling that stays with you forever
And you may have other guys, but nothing or no one could ever compare, and you know that.
There was a little girl named Mackenzie, and when she was five something tragic happened. Her friends and her were playing with rocks, and one kid threw a rock in her eyes by mistake. Ever since then she was blind. Because of her being blind, everyone made fun of her and she had no friends.
When she was sixteen, she was sitting in the library, listening to an audio book when a boy came up to her.
“Hello there, what are your reading?”
“I’m actually listening to War and Peace,” replied Mackenzie.
“Oh, I love that book!” he said.
They began to talk about it, and a bunch of other stuff too. His name was Ryan and he was also sixteen. When the library closed, they each gave one another their phone numbers. Ryan didn’t realize she was blind.
Later that day, Ryan calls her house. They start to talk, and don’t stop until three hours later. When she had to go, Ryan asked her out on a date, and excitedly she said yes.
On this date, Ryan realizes that Mackenzie is blind. But he doesn’t care, it doesn’t change any of his feelings about her. During their next couple of dates, she finally admits to being blind.
“Yeah, I noticed a while ago,” he admitted.
“But, why didn’t you say anything?”
“Because it doesn’t change the way I feel about you.”
Mackenzie was shocked about this answer, and she felt something she had never felt before; love.
So eight years later, Ryan has a surprise for her.
“I have been saving up money for you to get a cornea transplant ever since we were sixteen, and now I finally have enough.”
So when the doctors took off Mackenzie’s bandages, the first thing she saw was Ryan, on his knees, with a ring in his hand.
“Aah! I’m sorry I keep messing up!” Kimmie slammed her fists on the piano and winced when it made an ugly sound. “I’m a horrible piano player.”
“No!” Ryan protested. “You’re good. You just get so nervous!”
Ryan and Kimmie were sitting in his brightly lit living room. She was seated at the glossy black piano while Ryan was seated on the couch parallel to her, strumming his guitar. Somewhere in the other room Ryan’s bulldog named Otis was barking.
“Play the first bar for me,” Ryan said.
Kimmie nodded and began to play. The piece wasn’t very hard; not hard at all, actually. But every time she thought about what a disappointment it would be if she ruined the piece he worked on, her fingers slipped.
Clang.
“Ugh.” Kimmie was so frustrated. “Maybe you should just ask someone else to play this.” Her fingers absentmindedly played the B-flat scale.
Ryan looked at Kimmie thoughtfully for a few seconds. “Scoot,” He said to Kimmie as he slid onto the piano bench with her. “Okay…,” He murmured. He studied her sheet music and began to play. “You always seem to mess up right about here,” Ryan said while playing. “You go from low D to G to B-flat. Then F to E-natural to E-flat then back to F. Try it.”
Kimmie nodded, took a deep breath, and began to play. That wasn’t a very good idea. He smelled so good! “Shit! I messed up again!” She looked at Ryan from the corner of her eye. He was looking at the sheet music and not at her. “I’m really sorry. Maybe I shouldn’t play this piece anymore. I’m killing the piece you wrote.”
“No!” Ryan shook his head. He bit his lower lip. “Can you-” His voice cracked. He cleared his throat and Kimmie smiled a little. “Can you play this one more time? From the very beginning, okay?” His voice had gone all soft suddenly.
A little suspicious, she began to play once more.
“Want to know why I asked you to play this with me?” Ryan asked over the music as Kimmie neared the part she always stumbled over. “I wrote this song for you.”
When played all the way through the end, a song can say so many things.

One woman suffered from infertility for 5 years.
Her best friend was dying from cancer and said “I will send you a baby when I get to heaven.”
Two months later, she found out she was pregnant with a baby girl.
Here I am today, 12 years later. A miracle baby. Their love GMH.
I was at work the other day, and I saw an 80+ year old man pushing his wife around the mall in a wheelchair, laughing and kissing.
As I watched, he pushed her straight into the women’s restroom, because she was handicapped and needed help.
That place set aside his dignity and modest to help the woman he still loved.
That man’s LGMH.
My daughter has been taking very long walks every morning.
I decided to follow her one morning cause I was worried about her.
it turns out that she’s been going to her father’s grave every morning and talks to him for hours.
Her never ending love for her father gives me hope.
I woke up with a huge zit smack dab in the middle of my nose.
I had a date with my boyfriend tonight and he showed up at my door with a large pen marking on his nose.
He told me he didn’t want me to be ashamed of something that didn’t matter.
Zachary, your love for me GMH.
I work at a women’s clothing store.
A woman came into the store with her husband. He explained each clothing item in detail to her, then brought her into the dressing room and dressed her himself, telling her how beautiful she looked in each outfit.
She was blind.
Love under any circumstance GMH.
