I want a love like the movies.
Where your favorite color becomes the color of their favorite shirt.
Your favorite movie is the one that makes them laugh the most.
A love where being together makes you wonder how you ever handled being apart.
Where two worlds collide into a wonderful chaos that is so beautiful, it blinds anyone who dares to glance in its direction.
Instead, I live in a world where that same collision is a mess of bloodshed and war.
Two people trying to outdo each other for the sake of not seeming weak.
Puzzle pieces that at first fit together are starting to show the cracks you thought were filled.
The fine wine is just grape juice in a fancy glass bottle.
That blinding light is a rampaging fire, and it has burned down the garden.
There is no love in this life. At least not in mine.

How to Eat Cheap
Did you know almost 50 percent of the world's population lives off $2.50 a day? To put that in perspective, the average American spends more than $150 a month (roughly $5/day) on food alone. That's twice as much! But just because we do spend more doesn't mean we have to spend more. If you're in a tight spot and need to cut back on some expenses, your food budget is a good place to start. Here are some rules, guidelines, and words of advice to help get through it.
