Very Sappy Post: Read At Your Own Risk

"For you I would stop the very rotation of the earth, simply to keep one moment forever." (Author unknown)

When you are with someone and your greatest wish is to freeze time to preserve that moment with them, it is a profound experience. It is in this moment that you know you have found love. You are with someone that is essential to your very existence and to let them go, may be your greatest regret.

I may be jaded and cynical most of the time, but in reality and in the moments I am most honest with myself, I know to the core of my being that I want someone to feel that way about me. I want to know without a doubt simply by looking into his eyes that he loves me. I want someone to think that loving me is worth the leap of faith that love takes. I want to be his first and last thought of the day. I want to live every moment with him as if it is our last, while looking forward as if we have forever. I need to believe that this will happen, because in life, hope is the greatest motivator to keep moving on, and in my experience love is the greatest gift.
