To make a mountain of
Your life is just a choice
But I never learned enough
To listen to the voice that told me
Always love
Hate will get you every time
Always love
Don't wait til the finish line
Slow demands come around
Squeeze the air and keep the rest out
It helps to write it down
Even when you then cross it out
But always love
Hate will get you every time
Always love
Even when you ought to fight
Self-directed lives
I want to know what it'd be like to
Aim so high above
Any card that you get dealt you
Always love
Hate will get you every time
Always love
Hate will get you
And I've been held back by something
You said to me quietly on the stairs
You said
Hey you good ones
Thank you, Nada Surf, for this slap in the face. Driving home and hearing this song made me realize just how petty it is to be jealous, annoyed, angry, bitter. People are people, and you should try to love them the best you can - and by you I mean me. I should try harder to be more understanding. I should be more generous. I should do the best I can in all situations, regardless of whether I feel like it. It makes me sad to admit what a failure I've been in this area lately, and really just in general.

you were an immense help to me last month. you didn't have to hang out with me as much as you did that week, but you did. like four times in a week? and I don't think I've told you how much I really appreciated it. because I really do. thank you. so much.
I'd like to hang out again sometime.
Hanging out that much might have seemed like a chore if I didn't love you so freaking much. :) As it stands, I had a great time reconnecting with you... It just so happened to be when you needed someone to talk to. Knowing it helped you out that much makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.
I would also like to hang out again, hopefully sooner rather than later!
