What I've learned from dinner last night. 

Extraordinary things happen everyday, and most people are just too ordinary to see them. Even summer can feel like winter, no matter how much the sun shines on your face. The strength of a relationship is not measured by how much one person loves another. It doesn't matter if you would hang the moon for someone, if they don't love you back, they never will, and if they dont care enough to return your affections then the relationship is not strong. The strength of a relationship is measured by the amount of affection between person A and person B. It's mathmatical, see, the closer to 0 the better. So if person A loves person B at 8, and person B loves person A at 2, the relationship is 6... 6 is not close to 0, bad relationship... get it?

Boats have anchors...humans don't have anchors. Sometimes things can hold us down, so either embrace it and find a way to keep it without weighing you down, or let it go. Letting things go, especially people, is hard. But no one ever said life would be easy either. Take the time to enjoy life. I often find it is the times when I get so busy and stressed out that I get bummed out. Thats just because I get too busy to remember what I do have and how lucky I am. Some of us really are "relationship challenged" and thats okay.

When someone makes you sad, more then they make you happy, it's time to re-evaluate the relationship, he kept reminding me remember humans don't have anchors. Once again- Letting someone go is hard.

In order for someone to "get you" you have to know them for more then 5 minutes.

Sometimes salvation comes in the form of heartache.
