On Unraveling

I don't ever want to have to trivialize anyone. I don't ever want to look back on my life, on a person who used to be in my life, and feel casual about feelings I once had so strongly. I want him to be precious to me forever; I want her to always be the light of my life; I want to always have the #1 place in his heart. shardsofsoul wrote in my guestbook, regarding my Weaving entry, about how everyone's life is one patch on the giant quilt of life. That made me think about these stitches that hold us together; how you choose whose patches you are going to be bound to. You sew yourself to people and form your own network, and their network touches another network, and that network touches another and another, until... the whole thing is the human tapestry. I can't think of anything sadder than having to cut threads on that tapestry, except maybe looking back and not regretting having cut them anymore.

I want to stay in this same emotional fabric forever; I love every scrap of cloth that I touch too much to let it go. But that's exactly what loving is - caring enough to let go.
