First Love
Love, love, love.
This week I am talking about the love that makes you feel funny and stumble over your words. The first attraction that makes you think of nothing other than what a wonderful person the object of your affections is even if he or she is, in reality, a completely annoying piece of humanity.
Aww.
I don’t mean to gross you out with the rose-tinted glasses type love commentary, but it’s a lovely feeling when you’re experiencing it. There is nothing quite akin to the feeling of feeling of having your worldly happiness depend so entirely on another human being.
Haha. It is a nice feeling, but I’m so glad I’m past it.
Today I would like you to write about what life is/was like when you had your first love. Maybe it happened in school or maybe at your first job. Perhaps your parents had friends with children your age, and one happened to catch your eye…
As long ago as it may have happened and no matter how it ended (if it has ended), I’m pretty sure you can remember the feelings you had back then. There are the mortifying moments when you said or did something very silly in front of the one you love(d). There are the daydreams and fantasies about what life would be like when you were finally with him/her.
Tap into those memories and get them down on paper. Not only are they part of what made you the person you are, they are excellent memories to draw on in your writer.
