Proposals are so overrated. People say "Successful Proposal" as if the proposal itself is what makes the gal say "Yes". A proposal is successful not because the proposal was romantic, but because of everything that happened from Day 1 and what they feel will happen in the future. If the gal does not think the guy is The One, no matter how romantic, how bombastic, how OTT the proposal was, the answer still would be NO.

To Love is Not to Possess by James Kavanaugh
To love is not to possess,
To own or imprison,
Nor to lose one’s self in another.
Love is to join and separate,
To walk alone and together,
To find a laughing freedom
That lonely isolation does not permit.
It is finally to be able
To be who we really are
No longer clinging in childish dependency
Nor docilely living separate lives in silence,
It is to be perfectly one’s self
And perfectly joined in permanent commitment
To another–and to one’s inner self.
Love only endures when it moves like waves,
Receding and returning gently or passionately,
Or moving lovingly like the tide
In the moon’s own predictable harmony,
Because finally, despite a child’s scars
Or an adult’s deepest wounds,
They are openly free to be
Who they really are–and always secretly were,
In the very core of their being
Where true and lasting love can alone abide.

Priorities
I want it all, but I can't.
I want to take a break, but I have big plans for the future and my pocket cannot stand to be empty.
I want to work for passion, but I need money.
I want to work to learn, but I want to rest, too.
I want to spend, but I need to save.
Why can't I have it all?

Fifty
Ah, novels are my guilty pleasure.
I know I should be sleeping.
I know I should be working.
I know I should stop daydreaming about the book...
But to lose myself in someone else's world...I wish I could take one week off work & just camp in bed reading all the novels in the world.
