Like, Lust, Love

Fall is quite the romantic season. 

I'm learning romance, lust and love through my new relationships; and not just with my boyfriend, but with reconnecting with friends. 

Eating disorders push people away. While forming a relationship with "Ed", I lost not only my relationships with my friends and family but also my relationship with myself. I've lost who I am and the person I wish to become.  

But life after "Ed" can be as confusing as life with him. What do I like, love, and for what or whom do I lust? What is this sense of romance I so seek? 
I am discovering this, slowly.

Like: Sunshine, black coffee, Asian cuisine, blogging, flowers, books, autumn
Love: Poetry; indie and classical music; uniqueness; recovery; friendship; family
Lust for: Romance, true beauty, chivalry, respect, honesty
What do you like, love, and for what or whom do you lust?




P.S. Thanks to "Psych" for the topic idea!

  2. Aww, thanks for the shout out! I find that my best blog posts are the ones that I don't think about a lot beforehand -- I just kind of sit down and start writing. That's another thing I love -- being "impromptu." (I also love Chopin's Fantasy Impromptu)

    Like: playing the piano, drawing, LONG walks, people watching

    Love: non-fiction books, the library, autumn, music in general, morning, rain, silence/peace, my sister

    Lust for: being in-tune with myself, helping to change someone's life, balance, and of course, love

    I'm so happy that you've found someone that respects you, and that you care for. I think people like that are so important in everyone's life. I think they will help you to find "who you are and the person you wish to become" once again.

    Best of luck,
    Alexandra
