This morning I woke to read that yet another guy I invested some energy in pursuing has succumbed to cancer. This makes the number of dead men I've dated, flirted with, sighed over, longed for, etc into the double digits at last.
Love is precious. Tell people if you love them. It's just about the most important thing in the world, and far above any of the fears and doubts that keep the words from being said. It may change nothing in the greater scheme of things. On the other hand, on the day that I die I plan to pass on smiling with the memory of how many have loved me, and told me.
Oh my beloveds, I do adore you all. Never doubt my affections, even for a moment.

Yes. Life is too short to waste on hate. Spend it on love instead.
