Love transcends through time
So I suppose love transcends through time. A sweet thought to dwell on, impossible but, sweet. To think the right person out there is out there. Maybe not in this time period but in another decade from some other century, millennium, past or future. This is what some films have shown us like that of Kate and Leopold, directed by James Mangold.
Sweet movie but, no, the story I wish to revisit is actually the Twilight series by Stephanie Meyer. How can I not? It's everywhere.
So the one is out there from a spectrum view of the universe against time and space. Though none of us will live long enough to find out. So what if someone did? Live for eternity. Find the love of their life almost a century later. Ah sounds like a fairy tale romance, something like Charles Perrault's Sleeping Beauty. Leaving this pretty thought for a moment (don't want to burst the bubble but can't stop my curiosity), but what would happen in a realistic setting?
The hero and heroine, Edward and Bella both bound in youth but ninety odd years apart. Look past the facade and physical form and you see a 108 year old and a 17 year old. The maturity of an adult, old man and beyond...can love solely transcend by itself without going into a darker mind set which I will not set foot any further into thought.
Hm... well let's just assume it's all just pure love, but not without some subtle help of course. Both bound in youth. Sight is probably the most influential sense that we own. It can convince our minds of the impossible, "seeing is believing," right? So how is this fictional relationship sustainable?...simply by the fact that sight fools all. But that's not saying that the relationship can't be genuine, of course, and that different people from a different place or time can't harbor true feelings for each other.
There was another point I wanted to mention but I seem to have forgotten it. Hm.
Returning back to the prissy, sweet fantasy of time transcending love, of course it can not be proven to exist but what all these stories convey are pockets of hope or just something to leave us smiling about when the story ends.

Lost and Found
Have you ever stopped to conclude when things mysteriously disappear that your possessions may have sprouted secret legs of there own and scuttled off somewhere deep and dark, out of your reach!
It sounds preposterous I know but is a delightful supernatural answer from our uncreative minds. Another more sinister yet outrageous thought is that a monster is hiding in the attic and has snagged the belonging while you're asleep!
Of course the real answer to the items whereabouts is that our poor, tired minds have idiotically instructed our bodies to place the item somewhere entirely unconventional. Surprised was I to find my necklace hiding at the bottom of my desk draw under the pile of scrap paper. What was I thinking when I put it there? And how annoyed did I let myself get when I discovered it was missing giving rise to such unrealistic conclusions.
Though I know what the answer to all my present lost property is, I am still awaiting my long awaited, missing hair brush to scuttle back into sight.

Fear
Fear. A really general topic.
Fear is being afraid or distressed by something. For some it is a very easily identified 'thing'. It could be phobia of heights, the dark, spiders, closed spaces...
I wouldn't say I had a greatest fear. I'm not saying I'm courageous or brave in anyway, I'm anything but. Actually I couldn't really think of one if someone were to ask me. But amazingly, I don't recall ever being asked such a question before. Never. It's just one of those aspects of life that doesn't come by much in a casual conversation I guess. I don't recall asking anyone either. I suppose I would be highly suspicious of the first person that asks me about my fears. Are they figuring out my weaknesses? Do they intend to use it against me? Even if it's just a friendly, prank or joke to bring out some humour. There's nothing worse than letting others knowing your vulnerabilities. A little mystery and not being an open book is always suggested. Huh.
