Is it LOVE ...



On Monday I drove to Lower Lake again, I really enjoy that drive and the schools there are nice. I was a little upset when I was there and the counselor was telling me some of the things the recruiters did. One recruiter parties with the students, another takes students to the office and tries to pressure them into signing paperwork to go into the military. The recruiter that works with me had been there the previous week and saying how he hates the area and how he hates visiting that school. It made me wonder why I go to the school, which is to help the recruiter to work well with the schools. Oh well, I must continue! After Lower Lake I drove to Ferndale, 4 hours north of Lower Lake. Tuesday I worked in Ferndale High, which has 34 seniors. It was a fun school and the students scored very high on the test. I drove back that day taking 100 pictures on the way, even though it was raining all the way (6 hours). Wednesday I worked at Dublin High then Deer Valley High. Those are huge schools that have more people in the senior class than the schools on the previous days have in their whole school. On my trip I stayed in a hotel and had nothing much to do so I was talking to a girl I know about a guy she had met a few months ago. She told me all the things she didn't like about him and could not understand anything she saw in him. Well, she said he was handsome and had a great job. She said she didn't like the way he treated her and never liked to do the things she liked. She likes to travel and he likes to stay home. She stopped seeing him for a few months, had a couple of other boyfriends in the mean time, then he called and she was excited to see him again. She asked me what was wrong with her and I said simply that she was in love. She asked why, and said there were many things she didn't like about him and really didn't like hanging out with him and I told her it sounded like they were married already. Why have the honeymoon period and just go straight to the period where you are comfortable with each other. In fact, isn't it true that we can't rationalize who we fall in love with? I think that when we find that person that we want to be with, but don't know why .... then isn't that love? Love is when we don't know why we want to be with a person, yet we will do anything to be with them. Am I wrong?
