Who’d wanna find love? Its not as if we know what to look for, looking out but not sure…

Hello blog readers!
I wanna write about love! I want to write about love because it’s big and stupid and it makes no sense to anyone, and I don’t understand it! But it’s something that touches everyone so why not write a blog about it?! I chose that picture because when I typed in ‘love’ I could only find straight couples, and so I wanted to do something different! Although, considering the fact that this is my blog, its probably exactly what you expected!
It’s weird isn’t it that only a few years ago, no one believed that there was such a thing as gay love. It was just gay sex. But no, those people were wrong, and now we can all be happy!
So blog title? Lyrics from one of Ellie Goulding’s ‘rare’ songs called ‘Who Want To Find Love?’ I thought it was good, because I of what we’ve been discussing in drama how love is an intangible concept – you can’t go to the shop and buy a bottle of love, and more and more I seem to be seeing people who try to do just that. Try to force there to be love when it isn’t there…
I think Doctor Who summed it up perfectly on Saturday in an episode that made me cry! The Girl Who Waited it was called! Tom MacRae is an actual genius! It was a beautiful episode! Anyway, here’s the quote from Amy talking about her husband Rory:
”Sometimes you meet someone so beautiful, and you actually talk to them and they’re dull as a brick? And then there’s other people and you think; ‘not bad, they’re ok’, and then you get to know them, and their face just sort of becomes them, like their personality is written all over it, and they’re just, they turn into something so beautiful… Rory is the most beautiful man I’ve ever met.”
Its so true and it was such a good quote! That was the bit that made me cry because, I’ll be honest, it is exactly how I feel about Mat. I’ll admit, when I first clapped eyes on him, I didn’t think he was the most beautiful man I’ve ever seen, and he’d say the same about me, but now I know for a fact, with 100% certainty that Mathew is genuinely the most wonderful and beautiful man I have ever ever seen.
I saw someone on Facebook the other night all sad because his love has moved away. I don’t really know him that well but I felt really sorry for him… I dunno… its like, love is just this universal message and once you get it, you just… get it. I don’t know how to explain it…
But then, does anyone? Seriously, think about it – try to define love. It isn’t possible. I can’t even describe the effects of it. It makes me want to laugh and cry and sing all at the same time!
I don’t know what I’m blogging about really… I’ve done the whole ‘love blog’ to death… I reckon I could summarize what I wanted to say in a few lines. Or bullet points. Because bullet points are cool these days.
- Don’t look for love. Look for someone you want to find love with.
- Don’t try to define love, because it isn’t possible.
- Never think you know everything there is to know about love. Because if you ever reach that position; you know nothing about love.
Ooh. I sound preachy now… and stupid. Cos I’m only 17. 17 year olds shouldn’t be preaching. It’s not cool… we should just stick to infantile wailings about how we have no clothes to go out in, and how nobody gets us!!
I am having a dilemma over what to wear tomorrow though… I might just wear my You Me at Six t-shirt! Because I’m seeing them soon! And hopefully meeting them the day before the gig!! EXCITING!! Anyway! I’m going now! Love is good!
Jack out.
