Love and Other Disasters

 

-Stop living your life like you’re in some kind of movie.
-Excuse me?
-Stop trying to cast your true love instead ofjust meeting him.
- When I meet him, I’ll know.
- I’m not so sure.
-Love isn’t always a lightning bolt, you know?
Maybe sometimes it’s just a choice.
-Well, that’s easy for you to say!
You’re flying to Argentina to meet the love of your life!
-That’s just it. I don’t know that Paolo’s the love of my life’
but I’ve decided to give him the chance to be.
Maybe true love is a decision.
You know, a decision to take a chance with somebody.
To give to somebody without worrying whether they’ll give anything back.
Or if they’re gonna hurt you, or if they really are the one.
Maybe love isn’t something that happens to you.
Maybe it’s something you have to choose.
-So what do I do?
-Well, you could start by putting all of those fantasies of
true love where they belong into your work of fiction.
