Stupid is as Stupid does

I have never stared at an empty sheet for so long.  It was as if the white canvas looked back at me and mocked me.  I knew exactly what I wanted to say but for some reason I could not get my hand to move my pen.  I now fight through the silence.  I spill my ink on this pure white canvas.  I now mock it with my written words.  It is something that everyone wants and I really mean everyone.  It is not just a word that I throw around so thoughtlessly as it has been in the past.  I write the word everyone with the knowledge of the gravity that the word brings.  Everyone wants to love and be loved.

I have seen far too many times in my young life men and women do incredibly stupid things for love.  Myself included.  Is it really worth it?  Is love worth the pain?  I am not sure that I will ever know.  For those who do not have it focus every part of their being to find it.  And there is only a select few that have chosen to not seek after it.  These individuals are those that have been so scarred by previous lovers that their opinion on the subject is void due to personal bias against love.  But what opinion on love is not personal?  Either you have been hurt by it so many times that you have given up entirely to try and find it or you have been deprived it for so long that you long after it with everything inside of you. Your heart cries out just wishing, praying, hoping someone will answer.  Why did God create us this way?  Why did He even take the rib from Atom?  Did he know that the pain from taking the rib would not compare to the love he felt from Eve?  Is that the answer to my question?  Perhaps every person, everyone, feels the pain of the part, the rib that is taken from them to form a bond with another.  Some have lost more ribs then others.  For some the scars have not yet healed.  For some it is not worth another stupid act.  It is not worth another rib.  I think I am ready. I am done fighting against the way God has made me.  He is much wiser then I.  He made her for a purpose, and he has given me more then one rib.  I guess he knew that I wouldn't get it right with the first one.
