If My Heart Was a House You'd be Home.

Thanks, OwlCity, for putting it so succinctly. (Adam Young is too awesome a writer for words.)

First of all, being the mushy sopface that I am, I am in love with that song. Not only is the music fantastic, the lyrics are beautiful!!! It's totally how I feel about no one in particular.

Which brings me to my topic for this post.

Today I am going to talk about being single and not loving it.

Also, what I have realised over the past year about it.

Firstly, Everyone I know (pretty much) has told me (in one way or another, some more and some less diplomatically) that I need to get over it because there's no way I'm going to stay single for long.

Still, my brain says, "Pfsh. Yeah, right."
Then I'll say, "But-"
And then my brain will cut me off with "You will be lonely for ever and without someone to love! BAHAHAaarr..."
...Yeah, maybe not quite like that. But, anyway. Continuing on.

And my heart goes sadface on me.

But... no more!

I realised this: I can love the someone even though I don't know them! Like that sappy Human Nature song...but not.

So yeah, I have decided to love whoever-he-is wholeheartedly, even though I don't know him yet.

Circle me and the needle moves gracefully
Back and forth; if my heart was a compass, you'd be north;
Risk it all, I'll catch you when you fall
Wherever you go, If my heart was a house you'd be home! 

*sigh*

Yep, fantastic song. And I don't feel lonely any more.
