impasse

in my previous relationship, i learned that hesitation & fear led to missing my turn. i also learned that loving someone else meant loving them for who they are in their entirety and expecting nothing more that for them to be themselves.

in this relationship i am learning the vastness of love. i've learned that the clique, "you can only love another if/when you love yourself," is true. in this relationship i've learned to let the other act on their own and to communicate how their actions effect me.

but what happens when you get weary and it causes you to not love so much. (there goes a monkey-wrench in the love machine.) how does the problem get solved when the party that is able to compromise has nothing left to compromise? seems as though we have a stale-mate on our hands.

how does love fix a stale-mate? something's gotta give ... right? if the solution arises more questions, then it's really not the true solution. usually it's: answer, then deal with it. if only life changing decisions were that simple ...

gotta keep the faith that i'll get out of the tunnel. i wonder what awaits on the other side.
