Theory of superposition.

I never thought of it this way before,

but i suppose two individuals in a relationship are just like waves and superposition-

When they meet,

if things go well, they hit it off, they fall in love, they get along,

smiles, laughter, hugs,

support, comfort, intimacy,

care, encouragement, proximity, love-

it's like constructive interference.

if things go badly, they end up hating each other's guts or they fall out of love;

tears, anger, disappointment,

quarrels, disagreements, fights,

misunderstandings, solitude, distance-

it's like destructive interference.

Because that's what love does to you,

it makes some things (a lot) better,

& also some things (kind of) worse,

doesn't it?

In the recent years I've slipped into a (rather peculiar) bad habit/practice of determining whether I wanted to read a certain book or not.

I would flip to the very last page of the book,

read the very last bit of the ending,

and then decide if i wanted to read it from the start.

I still do that almost all the time.

and I know books are just books,

whereas life is, well,

it's life-

there are limitless possibilities/potential outcomes,

and anything you or i do today,

could change how things happen later, tomorrow, near year-

but still, i wish i could flip to the very last page,

to see what the ending of my life looks like.

sometimes you knew things would be difficult,

you appraise the situation difficulty and your ability to handle it,

then perhaps you decide in your better (or poorer) judgement

that you think you're equipped to deal with them/things,

thus you decide to take things on,

and though you knew,

but,

you just didn't think that they would be this difficult!?
