Ive been thinking about relationships recently. I havent been thinking about a specific type, just people in general. And Ive started to realize just how much little things matter. We might not think that they do so we dont put our time or effort into them. But I have to wonder-if we dont know or care about the little things, than whom are we in a relationship with? Do we even know? Are our relationships, relationships by title only? What if we took the time to know simple things like favorite colors and foods? Or what if we made time to have ridiculous conversations just for fun? What if we learned favorite places and music and books? What would happen if we stayed up later than normal to hear dreams and plans and goals. What would it do to set our personal realities aside for a while so that we might understand someone elses reality? Could we make time for meaningful talks but still understand that sitting in silence is sometimes necessary? Instead of constantly going, going, going, could we be content to just be with another person? Can we get past a denotative definition of love and recognize it in simple phrases or feel it in gentle touches or see it in quick glances? Will we choose to love someone in the way they need to be loved? Can we forget ourselves for a minute and understand that little details about another person matter so much? Maybe if we took the time to laugh and cry and learn and grow together, wed realize that its those little details that we love absolutely the most. And it never hurts to let someone know the details you love because it may be those details theyre struggling to accept.
