�a�(m)e=hhr(squared)


�a�(m)e=hhr

we'll get there... those of you who read this over at RealTime� and think you know the score already have forgotten that this is the home of the babbler and it is only behind the candoor that the words flow with the least restriction or thought of what it might mean or how it or i might appear or how long it might take or whether the words will ever even get read or even if they are totally real or just figments of my imagination cuz here, (pause for dramatic effect) behind the candoor, (pause for a knowing smile) we reach the pinnacle of babbleosity and dance with the universal babble gods (figuratively speaking for the atheists among us), the energy of the eternal infinity that somehow (whatever the theory today) connects everything and makes sense out of nonsense and nonsense out of sense because, after all, there is the constant change rule� and 42�

so sit back, take a snooze, pull up your favorite beverage and snack and relax with me while the babbler does his thing with the previously written contemplative mostly deeply serious introspective philosophical bit of genius that might have been, had a genius actually wrote it�

feel the love, it is all yours right now�

three daily blogs? (three blind mice?)... no, actually, two daily blogs and a diary (two mice and a cow?... oh be serious� serious?... why?... wait, there is seriousness in this entry, profound, and irreverent, and elusive, and telling, and way too many commas already, aye?)� so wait, what happened to the journal? (omigosh, not the journal)... is the journal too personal?... to serious?... am i serious?... too old?... i am laughing, but that doesn�t mean i am not serious (someday, somebody will actually understand me� then what?)� ok, seriously now, why all the public writing?...

well, since i am asking, i�ll ponder an answer�

unless you have one� i mean, you are paying attention, aren�t you?... how many years have you been loyally returning to this very spot to abuse yourself like this?... wait, i mean enlighten yourself like this� yeah, that�s it� how long has it been now� and there should be no association with self-abuse and how long it is, at least not in this entry�

of course (of course?... like it is so obvious?... who am i patronizing?... or am i condescending myself?... would condescending be the opposite of descending, therefore elevating?... are you following any of these parenthetic asides?)� of course what?...

oh, yes, the question� and answer� of course the answer is simply that i want to believe that someone out there in this universe lives to know everything about me because she (or he, but i�d personally prefer a she if we�re talking about mad love and sex, unless it�s purely platonic, if that is possible, but then, anything is possible, so whomever) is madly in love with me and lives to catch my next breath�

yes, that�s it, it, i say� i want to believe (not unlike muldare, only slightly more romantic� ok, maybe much more romantic� i�m not looking for my sister, after all� though it sure would be cool if i found her, if she exists, i mean, but that�s another tangent for another time and is obviously detracting from the seriousness of the revelation about to be revealed for the billionth time)�

what?... yes, it!� the reason for life, the universe, and everything (at least mine) and why i write and share so many words� i want to believe that someone out there in this universe lives to know everything about me because she is madly in love with me and lives to catch my next breath�

reason for being� reason for writing� reason for three blogs (two blogs and a diary and all the other little writing places)� you must had had some clue by now, i mean, this isn�t coming as any major shock, is it?...

hey, what do you expect from a hopelessly hopeful romantic? (that�s hhr)...

any of you who are understand what i mean, if not exactly, then approximately enough (i�m not alone, just ask zoe, who is much more amusing and adept at manipulating language in her quest for it� she�s also much more adorable {and hot as hell, mate}, which may or may not give her an advantage, but we can compare notes some other time for i am about to orate and philosophize about my take on hopelessly hopeful romanticism)�

simply (and it is simple):

to share every moment of life and whatever else is beyond life, to live and breath to be with someone because the person completes the perfect sharing you�ve always dreamed of� the symbiotic relationship that life is all about�

and i say that anyone who claims they do not want this lives in denial� or is so blinded by wounds and scars he/she is afraid to hope for it consciously� some just give up� hopeful romantics are not hopelessly hopeful romantics, after all�

we are of a different core, a core that will give it all every time no matter what happened yesterday� we are the ones who are ridiculous fools for love� we sing you�ll never walk alone and the impossible dream (except we know it is possible, we just know it) and need to be in love� yes, the (deep breath) carpenters� we don�t just give peace a chance, we do it� we live it and share it and sometimes, we get all emo and italicize� and sometimes, get walked all over for the open sharing and giving we do� but we will not change for we are what we are�

it is not hopeless, nor is it the hopelessly aspect of being hopeful that defines us� it means we are going to be hopeful even when hoping seems like the most ridiculously foolish thing that could ever be possibly be done by anyone anywhere at any time� all we need is love is a belief system and a way of life� nothing can deter us from our faith in being in love�

on a physiological level we are addicts, actually� addicted to the bio-chemical hormonal rush of giving - trusting - risking loss of everything - even risking death with every breath on every level� giving that unconditional trust to someone, the physio-emotional changes in the brain and body when belief is unquestioned and no challenge can sway us�

it is the belief in being in love, even beyond the belief in one single individual (important distinction between those hopelessly hopeful romantics who live relatively healthy emotional lives and those who become obsessive compulsive stalkers), but a belief that there is one (at least) individual out there who matches us in every way so the idyllic falling in love can actually happen� and a belief that we can find that one�

ultimately, it is mostly a choice�

yeah, so that�s why, for the moment, three daily blogs, or more accurately, two blogs (brief record of daily life and babbling record of daily life and whatever else comes to mind) and a diary (this diary actually, the babbling done to maintain balance, equilibrium, sanity, and to keep the universe from imploding� you can thank me later)� and a dozen other writing spaces that find something scribbled in them at least once a week and another dozen at least a couple of times a month and still more �blogs� full of rhymes and rhetoric, emo and cynicism, love and whatever, on occasion, all forming the written gardens that share me in words when nobody is around (so every moment, even alone, the sharing that actualizes the hopelessly hopeful romantic being i am can continue)�

makes sense to me�

and if it makes sense to you, then yay you� hopelessly hopeful romantics unite!... hhr is not something to be shamed or hidden away under the covers� we do not need drugs (though they can be fun)� i know there are others out there, but exposure is a challenge� people mock us� use us� abuse us� but for those who truly think it seems safer in the closet, i says confession is the better part of valor, or something like that�

you can dream� you can watch it on tv or movies� you can have wonderful masturbatory fantasies� or (well, actually and/or) you can also risk it all and live the hhr (soon it�ll be the latest addition to the dsm-v) lifestyle for all you�re worth and then, (and only then) have the chance to actually actualize sharing it�

all we are saying� is give hhr a chance�

it is the holiday season, after all�
