And I'm so off to read the rest on the new post.<br /><br />p.s.<br />Love? I think love has shaped my life over and over many times. The love of my parents despite the fact that I've always been a terror in every aspect when I was a child (and not only then) the love of my dear brother who managed to keep me in track when I veered of the path at times, the love of my lovers even though eventually they ended it shaped me into the person I am today, but most of all the love of my children. I see everything with new eyes now because I see a simpler world through them with the added bonus of a mature brain. Love is humbling in any form and it's all the reason to live as optimistic and happy as you can, even when everything seem dark and grey.Thomaidhahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10901950373516861280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3581086669446176216.post-48796178913126366702014-02-16T09:17:15.093-08:002014-02-16T09:17:15.093-08:00Love is a grounding force for me.

I'm glad that after a hard life lived as a "freak," Kertyn has a chance to be happy and loved for who is.<br /><br />The love from my friends has kept me sane the last two years. I moved to Massachusetts as part of a midlife career change, and the people, culture and WEATHER really do not suit me. I've been miserable. My friends have supported me and lifted my spirits as I've gone through this difficult stage.

It has a lot of potential and I can't wait to read more. As to what love has done for me. . . . It has taught me patience and how enduring takes real work. Some people think that love is a beautiful and perfect thing. It's not. It is beautiful but it is far from perfect. I have been with my husband for fourteen years and there have been some patches that have taken a lot of work to get through. We are stronger for it. Love that is easy and hasn't had to grow will only crumble when the shit hits the fan.<br />HarmonySollock@gmail.comHarmonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06010069167249224837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3581086669446176216.post-988136735208166792014-02-15T08:16:13.492-08:002014-02-15T08:16:13.492-08:00My email is naughtycouture@yahoo.comMy email is naughtycouture@yahoo.comNaughtyCouturehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18224834517869222459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3581086669446176216.post-13733401851006155092014-02-14T19:34:09.344-08:002014-02-14T19:34:09.344-08:00So glad that you chose THIS story to expand!

It was one that had really caught my eye back when I first decided to read it and I think that the characters really deserve to get their whole story told!<br /><br />As for the love part... I too am one who married my high school sweetheart. We started dating at 15... And this year will mark our 16th year together (married for almost 11). He has been my first and only everything, and I wouldn't change it for the world.

My hubby isn't the most demonstrative either, but if I get sick or hurt he's right there. It definitely shows you when a person really cares.

So happy that there will be more! <br /> I'm glad that you included other types of love in your posting. I would say family love. My parents were never very affectionate in words or in touch. But I knew they loved us though actions, e.g. we got flu shots at a time when most people didn't get flu shots. Or if they read about some outbreak of something, they wanted us to get that tetanus shot etc. <br />strive4bst(AT) yahoo(Dot) comJbstnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3581086669446176216.post-71819325166865695942014-02-14T11:56:17.049-08:002014-02-14T11:56:17.049-08:00Awww, how poetic Malin!

A love that has survived the roaring twenties with studies at university, long distance love for four years, billing hell at law firm, two amazing but demanding kids. Now twenty years later we are still in love and lust! Why? Because he is simply the most wonderful person in the world.<br /><br />I am very happy you revisited this story. I was really wanting to read more when I read it the first time.
