I've been thinking about love lately and the words 'I love you.' I have almost come to the point of thinking that we have so cheapened those three words that they don't mean anything. You see couples who say I love you, but then you see them break up and show that they really don't love. Love for me is a committment. When I love someone, it'll be for good and for the rest of my life. The surface emotions that will occur first won't be the love I'm talking about. I want to have the agape love, the love that says no matter what, I'm going to be true to my spouse and will truly love her. That said, I am going to endeavor to save the words "I love you" for the day of proposal.
Now, of course, that's a long way off. I'm still the resident bachelor and proud of it. *grins* Doesn't mean I don't want to marry, just that I know that I'm not ready right now for a relationship. I do look forward to the partnership of marriage and the eventual house full of little JCs... Someone made the comment last night (as I had the pastor's daughter - Winter, 6 - on my lap) that I would have a lot of kids. I wholeheartedly agree. My goal is to have around 5 or maybe even more, depends on how God leads me.
School is winding down. I've got two big projects coming due and of course I haven't done a thing to them. Got to sit down and write an outline for my persuasion speech and then talk to the teacher about it. It's due on Friday. Then I have a Mark paper due a week from tomorrow. It'll be a bit easier 'cause the teacher assigned the text for us to write on and gave a formula for our paper to fit. Got to research for that.
Of course, a monkey wrench gets thrown into everything and this one is a doozy! Our head resident decided that we needed to have a white glove inspection tonight. So, we get to spend most of the evening cleaning our room. Stinks, 'cause I have better things to do with my time.
Oh, I got to go skiing for the first time in 7 years on Saturday. fell quite a few times and stayed on the bunny run mostly, but it was a blast! Me wants to go again.
Well, gtg. The lab is now closing.
