Isn't it safer to simply keep the heart locked up and barricaded completely?
To run the delicate romantic situations with one's head?
'Course I just love the dude friends in my life.
I'm proud to know some amazing, funny, talented, Christian, good-looking young men.
But why do we all have to grow up and let things get awkward and...FEELY?
Can't we all just stay friends like we were when we were ten?
I'd honestly rather, and not have to think about anybody THAT WAY.
Unless, of course, he was the real One.
Hopefully the LORD would tell me that without waiting around.
But if you are not the real One and you're interested in me...
I probably like you as a good friend something fierce.
But I hope you know I'd rather be friends the way we always have been.
That would be the hard part--if you felt that way, and you weren't the One, but you were a good friend of mine.
Then it would my job to shovel a trench between us, one that never needed to be there before.
I'd do the shovel work while being just torn up inside because I couldn't just be your friend like always.
I would dig.
I'd like you too much not to dig.
I wouldn't let you get into a relationship that I knew wouldn't work in the long run.
I'd feel bad you felt the way you did for your sake and do anything to make it go away.
I'd feel bad for my own sake, because things could never be the same as the short time ago when we were all children.
And you would not have a clue why I was digging trenches.
You would probably feel really hurt over it.
And that would make me cry a lot.
Even the using-head-only-Meggy would feel awful that you were sad.
So I'd pray for God to tell you that we just weren't right.
So you could be the one to tell me.
And then we could just be friends and that's all.
It would save me some pain and digging.
And maybe both of us some hurt.
Ya know?
Just thought I'd say.. in case anything ever happened that that way.
In short, "Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaax!!!!!!!!! Help me!!!!!!!!!!! I'm.................
FEELING!!!!!!"
