[SOC]

I have been a terrible blogger over the past two months. It is an open secret that I am in a relationship with someone. I am fixing to say good-bye to her in just a few minutes. It sucks saying good-bye.

A boyfriend once told his girlfriend that he would climb any mountain and cross any sea to be with his beloved, and he would be over to her house on Tuesday if it wasn't raining. There is something to be said in favor of adversity. That which is easily gained is lightly esteemed. And words are cheap. Deeds are what make the difference.

Fate has been cruel to me but also kind. I have a bad habit of personifying Fate and giving it a capital F. I know it is all random chance, and the universe is indifferent to all that I do. Over the last few months, I have noticed that I am both lucky and unlucky in many ways. Ultimately, these things boil down to what we choose to notice and not notice. For me, I am indifferent to circumstance. I will surmount the difficulties to get what I want or die in the attempt.

True love needs adversity. This is how we know it is true love. It sucks that we go through what we go through, but there are better days ahead and worse. I have to be with this woman. This isn't steelhead salmon talk. I just know that she is the One. You just know. And when you know, you are going to be with her. There is no question about it.

Time to say good-bye.
