Once upon a time, an Events Coordinator from California took a trip to North Dakota. Heidi was attractive and bright and immeadiately fell in love with a local cowboy. It was all so wildly romantic, and like so many before her, Heidi's foolish heart took over. Unfortunately, theirs was a love that could not be, and Heidi returned back to her real life in California.
After reading of Heidi's adventures, from the postcard she sent me, I wondered if Heidi had missed her chance for true love. Sure, maybe falling in love and running away from home wasnt the smartest choice, but if you're following your heart, isnt it a chance worth taking?
Here's my reasoning: Not everyone can win the lottery. Not everyone can be super rich, or skinny. And not everyone can wear orange. Sure, most people want to be skinny, lottery-winners, who can wear orange without looking like an inmate from a state prison, but not everyone can be. But if there was a chance you could be one of those lucky people, wouldnt you take it? I used to think so, but maybe I was wrong.
Earlier this week, I got an email from my good friend Sean. Sean was a screenwriter from L.A., who frequently came to Tucson to house-sit his mother's house, whenever she left for a business trip. Sean was a funny guy who so happened to be unlucky in love. He could never find a person to understand him. In every relationship he ever had, Sean was attracted to the person. And all the people he'd ever been attracted to, happened to be guys. Until now.
David, I wish you were online so that I could talk to to you. Anyway I am thinking about going straight, and I have said before that I am bi, but to say the turth, I am just tired of looking for mr. right, you know? The reason for this???? I have met someone (a girl, obviously) who gets me and will be flying to Spain to get married at the end of the month. yes, i know its real soon and I'm probably not thinking straight (better change that one LOL!) but i dont care. up until the end of the month, I will be alone for some time in which I will be going straight, (as best I can LOL) and was wondering if you wanted to hang out and maybe fly out with me. I sure could use a friend at the alter. but anyway thought I would throw that out to you. If you don't wanna fly that's cool too, and so you know, I will always be there for you as a friend.
Flying away to a whole other country to get married? Changing his sexual orientation? Who was this brazen woman that my friend had fallen in love with and was it all worth it? Sean's life was here...well, L.A., but, still. Could he really be that much in love? Could he really just leave everything behind? And could I really go to Spain, not saying anything?
When it comes to falling in love, is it smarter to follow your heart or your head? How can you trust either? They're both so completely fallible, and no matter what choice you follow, you're destined to leave with thoughts of sorrow. Still, a choice must be made, and when the time comes, how do you know which path to follow?
