Triangular Theory Of Love

Most people when they hear the word love immediately think of romance and marriage. Love does not only mean that. It can be dissected into multiple categories as shown in the triangle. Love is not only having feelings for someone but it also can mean your best friends with someone and you love them does not actually mean you love them romantically. Love is a very broad topic.

Reflection

What I noticed after reading all these people's reactions about love is that the down side of falling in love most deffinatly outweighs the up side. Many people look so happy when their in love but that's only when you view them. Lots of time falling in love involves a lot of fighting which is not the worst thing in the world because that does make the relationship stronger. Although there blog post do describe a lot about the downside of love they also describe the up side too it. They mention how its the greatest feeling ever to have someone care about you, too know that their your best friend and your their best friend.  Being in love isn't the worst thing.

Childless

Over the past few years studies have concurred that there used to be a rate of every 1 an 10 couples being childless but now that number has dropped down to every 1 an 5 couples are kidless, you might ask yourself why? Well now a days a human can make a judgment call much earlier in life and some women are just not able to fertilize, other women are unable to have those feelings that they want kids until there 65 and then have there first kid. Other women worry about there work, social, and economic life. Many women are afraid that once they have a kid they will not be able to socialize were there friend group anymore and will become lonely. Often times many women are afraid with their work situation either they don't know if there going to be able to have the time off. Or they are just so caught up in the moment at work that they just do not want to leave and want to continue with their job. Economic reasons is a huge reason why a lot of couples do not want to have kids. The amount of money a kid will cost you is atrocious and there not willing to put that much money that they could be using for vacation for them or there retirement plan down on a little dweeb. Lots of parents also don't want to have kids because of their nosiness Also "parents" wouldn't want to have to deal with the amount of time they would have to put into kids in driving them places and taking care of them, not having their schedule match up with you schedule it would be a lot of relentless tiring hours there not wanting to give up for an annoying little kid.Often times parents aren't really willing enough to have to deal with the girlhood in their main stage when there bitches.

Interviewing Parents

Love

Love in my perception is represented in the song " Love Story" by Taylor Swift. Song is a straight jam and pretty much sums up what love is like how one and another should feel toward each other and describing how one and another is. Here is the lyrics.

We were both young when I first saw you.
I close my eyes and the flashback starts:
I'm standing there on a balcony in summer air.

See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns.
See you make your way through the crowd
And say, "Hello,"
Little did I know...

That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles,
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you, "Please don't go"
And I said...

Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone.
I'll be waiting; all that's left to do is run.
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess,
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes."

So I sneak out to the garden to see you.
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes... escape this town for a little while.
Oh, oh.

'Cause you were Romeo – I was a scarlet letter,
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet."
But you were everything to me,
I was begging you, "Please don't go."
And I said...

Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone.
I'll be waiting; all that's left to do is run.
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess.
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes."

Romeo, save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel.
This love is difficult but it's real.
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess.
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes."

Oh, oh.

I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around.
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town.
And I said...

"Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so alone.
I keep waiting for you but you never come.
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think."
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said...

"Marry me, Juliet, you'll never have to be alone.
I love you, and that's all I really know.
I talked to your dad – go pick out a white dress
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes."

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

'Cause we were both young when I first saw you.

New Thoughts

Over the past few weeks of school and doing these daily exposures every day in english class i have started to recognize something. My voice isn't the only voice being voiced. Many other people share their opinions in different ways then i do. They do not just say it out like i do, instead they put it to the tune of the song what there thinking about. Or the also just put into a sequential cartoon. I was not able to really understand or comprehend the meaning of the daily exposure at first. But as the weeks have progressed i have been able to understand and been able to relate to it knowing i'm not the only one that has an opinion.

Difficult Conversation

Police Officer and Parents.

Police Officer: M'am i don't know how to tell you this but your daughter has gone missing.

Parents: WHAT?! We just dropped him off at day care 2 hours ago.

Police: Some mysterious man came in and said he was picking Billy up from pre school.

Parents: And those idiots believed him?!

Police: I guess so, we're terribly sorry about this miscue and we have team gathering evidence right now about this mysterious man.

Parents: Well do you have a lead or anything?

Police: Right now we have a description of the man being 5'11 with blue eyes.

Parents: Ok please keep us informed.

Police: M'am i am not sure how to tell you this but we just found Billy's body behind an old farm house in Avon Hills.

Parents: So your telling me my child is dead... OH MY GOD ( Crying hysterically) 

Parents: This is all the pre schools fault those idiots should've never let that mysterious men pick up our child.

Police: Again m'am were very sorry were doing everything we can to find this cold hearted killer.

Aid for best friend

Looking for a best friend, one that is always there for you and will always respect your opinion. One that will always listen to you and help you when needed. One that will never lie and will always be honest with you even though they know that you won't like the answer sometimes. One that is caring for you and is always looking out for you and their voice means good to you. One that tells you when your doing wrong. One that respects you for whatever you do and doesn't judge you.

Non Human

As i move around very carefully trying to avoid these big things that keep destroying my home. I keep trying to get leaves and bring them back to base but i am unsuccessful. These big monsters have killed millions of us ants and i'm not sure why they continue to harm us we don't do anything to harm them and they just kill us like its there job. We are unable to go out and retrieve food because we will most likely get killed if we do.

Courage

I've smelt courage in the air multiple times but only one situation has really stood out to me as a true courageous act 9/11/2001. Millions of innocent civilians lost their life that day to a bunch of idiotic terrorist. About a few years ago i was watching Sports Center early in the morning before school and it was 9-11 and a documentary about a guy came on. This man was your typical stalk broker but he came from a background that you wouldn't expect him to do that. The kid went to BC on a full ride to play lax and always wore a red bandana under his helmet. This kid came out of college liked his job a lot until 2 days before 9-11 he called his dad told him he wanted to be fire fighter and save lives. Well 9-11 hit and he was in the south building the one that got hit second. Instead of being like every other human being and try to escape death, he on the other hand did not fear death. He was on the 79th floor the police were on the 65th floor escorting people down to safety by the elevator. This man decided to gather as many people as he could and bring them down to safety on the 65th floor and let the police escort them down When the police asked who was saving them they said the man in the red bandana. After he brought those people down he took the initiative to go back up and save more lives not fearing death. When the building feel he was in it and died in it. When loads of people came out they all asked who saved them. They replied the man in the red bandana.
