"We Give So Much Emphasis To Romance And Sexual Love, I Think It's So Grossly Overrated. We Are Always

"We give so much emphasis to romance and sexual love, I think it's so grossly overrated. We are always finding this one person to fill our void and our desires but why don't we allow platonic love that space? How wonderful is it to have this amazing loving group of friends that you resonate with who you love and are loved by for all of your faults and scars! Is it not incredible that we get to choose our family, love these stupid goofs that we chose and be there for them as they will be for you without any obligations! You are not bound to each other by merely sex or physical attraction or money or children or property but only by a mutual dedication to love each other always. Isn't there something so honest and bare about it? Yes romantic intimacy is beautiful and exciting but I think platonic love is so underrated although it is just as higher or deeper form of love as romantic love is if not more. It too can make your heart pound and heart flutter and maybe sometimes fill you up with insecurities or jealousy and make you nervous to act upon it and that's alright. If you give FRIENDSHIP enough emphasis it can just as beautiful and full of meaning as any relationship. I believe all loves are equal (despite of how much society prioritizes romance over everything) and will bring joy to your heart if you stop only emphasizing on romance. Give Platonic love just as much space and importance in your life and see how your soul will dance with glee."

Words have memories, they have witnessed so many things in history so far. If you know how to look at them, you can see the scars, the traces (i.e., the suggestions), the stories engraved on them. Words have words in their bellies, and they save them to be searched for those who really want to know the truth. The true history lies in their bellies in pieces, waiting to be found (or be awaken). History does not repeat itself, it mumbles in its sleep.
