The things I do for love

      For reasons unbeknownst to me, my life can never be simple. It's as though my life is facade of beautiful grass and I am just a careless picnicker; I lay my blanket on the grass and unpack my picnic, only to discover that the grass is worn and ugly, and ants have arrived to take my food from me. Whenever I find a perfect patch of life, something tends to go wrong shortly after. Though, it's not always such a dramatic turn of events, sometimes just a mere annoyance or disappointment. But overall, I'm happy with my life.
     I try to turn every situation I'm in into something positive. For example, when I got my car towed I had more than enough money saved up to bail my car out. The two ways this could be perceived are like so:

1. "Oh no! My car got towed and now I have to spend money to get it out!"
2. "Whew! I'm lucky I had more than enough money to save my vehicle!"

 The latter response is me because even though I was in a bad situation, I had enough safety cushion to get done what needed to be done and not end up flat broke.
     The reason I bring all this up is because my perfect visit to my boyfriend's corner of the world seemed to have further complicated our relationship. Maintaining a long distance relationship is hard enough, but it becomes even harder when you have all the time in the world and your significant other does not; when you have no way of seeing them because their internet is out; when your visit made your significant other realize that they love you a million times more than they thought they did....
     So I guess you can say we're on hiatus until things get smoother for him. It was quite upsetting at first but things have mostly returned to normal. I don't mind waiting because I know that I'll see him soon enough, and for a good while I hope. We'll be attending a wedding together on June 9th and things should better before then. It's just I know he's got a lot on his plate; it's his senior year of high school and he's gonna have to hustle up in this upcoming semester so he can graduate, visit me, and all that good stuff.

Hiatus or not, I can be patient for whom I love.<3
