Bella & Edward; Achilles & Briseis; Acheron & Tory. They are so perfect, and yet they are so far beyond perfect. Their pain, their pasts, their lifestyles are what make them perfect. They know what it is like to lose and to fail. They understand what it is to go so long without something, that when they finally receive it, they hold onto it. They embrace it. They never fear it. They fight hard to keep what they have waited so long to have, and they love it with every inch of their bodies, hearts, and souls. To love like that seems nearly impossible. Honor, pride, love, courage…it almost seems so meaningless today. All we have are the stories we read, and the history that we can reflect on.
Ha. I don’t want a normal life. Then again, if I had the choice, would I take the chance for something more amazing? I honestly don’t know. A smart person would say no; a smart person would be happy with what they have. I want to be that person, but at the same time, if I was given the choice and turned away from it, would I regret it for the rest of my life? Would I wish I had taken that one chance, that one risk that could have changed the course of my life forever? I don’t know.
Let’s hope an opportunity like that doesn’t pop up any time soon. Good night.
