..::..Speechless. Yes it's true, it won't be a smooth, lovely, doe-eyed ride. It will never be. The truth sometimes hurts. Maybe it's the strain of being together. It's not the magic-like ala 'Sleepless In Seattle' or 'You've Got Mail' or ''Kate and Leopold' (Hell, NO to this one). As you can see, I'll take Meg Ryan's films for references. I'm a fan. I should think it's more like 'When a Man Loves a Woman', the slightly bittersweet sides of her shows. Or like 'When Harry Met Sally'. Maybe even 'Joe Vs The Volcano.' A little madness I suppose. And tear-shedding. Not 'touchy' tear-shedding, but heart-ripping tear-shedding. But like every other thing, you always hope for a happy ending. Sometimes a little too desperately..::..
