This one's for you, world... you can't have me anymore.

This week has been a week of unmatchable contemplation. I'd like to consider myself a thinker (and good ol' myer-briggs agrees), but there's a point where the daily considerations of life get out of hand. I don't know where choices and passions are going to place me in the future, and I can't even begin to speculate as to where i'll be in five

even if i was, i don't believe in giving a shit about neurological disorders. you are you. i am me. plain and simple.

That's a post that definitely needs a comment...but I don't know what to say. As for getting married and loving selflessly...do you have to completely know how to love that way before you're married...or maybe getting married would help you learn...? Hmmm...anyway...I miss talking to you.

[lovesopure]

I don't know. I don't think loving selflessly is reserved exclusively for marriage. I'd really like to learn in a general sense.

I don't think that loving selflessly is reserved exclusively for marriage either...but from the way you made it sound in your post...I thought that you thought you couldn't get married until you had learned to love selflessly...is that an incorrect assumption? To learn to love selflessly in a general sense...I would think that would be harder to do than loving selflessly in a marriage. And really (these are just my sometimes incoherent musings...correct me if I'm wrong!)...if it's not selfless...could it really even be called "love"? Look at 1 Cor. 13...is there really any room for self there if that kind of love is actually practiced? Hmmm...anyway...

[lovesopure]

No, you were not incorrect in your assumption so much as I was incomplete in my explanation. It's not even the fact that I could be selfless enough to make a happy marriage. I don't know if I'm selfless enough to consider putting some of my plans on hold in order to annex another human being to my life.
A lot of my thoughts and ideas are a bit loopy right now as God's been teaching me a lot of things that are opposing my former ideologies. Bear with me.

And no... absolute love leaves no room for self.
