Guaranteed...

On bended knee is no way to be free
Lifting up an empty cup,
I ask silently All my destinations will accept the one that's me
So I can breathe...
Circles they grow and they swallow people whole
Half their lives they say goodnight to wives they'll never know
A mind full of questions, and a teacher in my soul
And so it goes...
Don't come closer or I'll have to go
Holding me like gravity are places that pull
If ever there was someone to keep me at home
It would be you...
Overhead...Leave it to me as I find a way to be
Consider me a satellite, forever orbiting
I knew all the rules, but the rules did not know me
Guaranteed

-Eddie Vedder


The concept that I believe in but haven't lived to it's fullest, is...the gravity of being pulled to someone, forever loving them. This song is interesting, because in part it suggests there is a love to keep one grounded and in retrospect that marriage may not be the ideal.

There is a struggle by nature that so many people have with the idea of commitment, of being 'tied' to one person. Truly though, if in your heart you are, it's as much torture as not physically being with that person. My hope is that people can begin to uncover themselves, the layers of fear, and past disspointment can only render them helpless if they let it...because to have loved and lost as your own fault, is not better to have not loved at all.

Hitch...

Wouldn't it be amazing if an actual 'Love Dr' existed, one that mysteriously worked his/her magic through the city by referal - giving us dating advice? Wishful thinking! Guys need more help than they are willing to admit...that's for sure.

"Basic Principles - no woman wakes up saying 'God, I hope I don't get swept off my feet today!' Now, she might say 'This is a really bad time for me,' or something like 'I just need some space,' or my personal favorite 'I'm really into my career right now.' You believe that? Neither does she. You know why? 'Cause she's lying to you, that's why. You understand me? Lying! It's not a bad time for her. She doesn't need any space. And she may be into her career, but what she's really saying is 'Uh, get away from me now,' or possibly 'Try harder, stupid,' but which one is it? 60% of all human communication is nonverbal, body language; 30% is your tone, so that means 90% of what you're saying ain't coming out of your mouth. Of course she's going to lie to you! She's a nice person! She doesn't want to hurt your feelings! What else she going to say? She doesn't even know you... yet. Luckily, the fact is that just like the rest of us, even a beautiful woman doesn't know what she wants until she sees it, and that's where I come in. My job is to open her eyes. Basic Principles - no matter what, no matter when, no matter who... any man has a chance to sweep any woman off her feet; he just needs the right broom."

{APPLUASE}

There isn't much I can say about this, except that it's 99% true, which in my book, is as true as it gets when it's a general theory. Men need to pay attention if they want to land the woman who may not seem within reach. Persistence and sincerity...but that will only help get you in the door. Keeping her is another story.
