Love is in the Air




Heart of Mine
has been in my head ever since I flew here.  Perennial States LSS. It's nice to sing as well.



Heart of Mine

Janno Gibbs




One day, you may find true love that will last forever and ever

'Til then you'll spend a lifetime wishin' one together

You never thought she'd say goodbye

And you will never understand the reasons why



Heart of mine

How will you keep from dying

Stop reminiscing

Who is she kissing

Heart of mine

Oh, what's the use in trying

No one can mend you now



Love plays cruel games, you can't believe she's found another lover

Does she miss me, sometimes you just can't help but wonder

No, you can't stop the hands of time

And you will always be the one she left behind

I've been reading By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept by Paulo Coelho. It's
funny because I bought it over a year ago and I haven't finished it
yet. I just end up sleeping, maybe because of its lyrical prose.
Coelho wrote this one beautifully.
Some of the lines I even highlight.
Anyway, I resolve to finish it this time. I'm almost halfway through
the book. But I found this paragraph particularly interesting. Maybe
because I was nodding my head in assent while I was reading it.



But love is like a dam: if you allow
a tiny crack to form through which only a trickle of water can pass,
that trickle will quickly bring down the whole structure, and soon no
one will be able to control the force of the current.




-Paulo Coelho, By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept




It takes time to realize that sometimes we don't allow even the tiniest
crack to be there. But then there are times when we just have to let it
happen. Let the torrent of water come rushing in.

See? I told you love is in the air!

Or is it...?
