So I volunteer in the Durham County Library from time to time (hell yes, my nerd card is out and proudly on display) and I came across a book today that made me stop and reflect. It was called Super Sad True Love Story by Gary Shteyngart.
If I was going to write a memoir about my first "REAL" love, this would be an aptly titled book. Too bad that shit is already taken. But in all seriousness, it really is a sad and ridiculously heartbreaking story.
While mine is a super sad true love story, it has a bit of a happy ending... I am lucky enough that I still get to talk to the subject of this book on a fairly regular basis. And that, to me, is a super happy thank the lord tale. And I intend to make sure it stays that way. Always.
Sometimes things may not turn out how you wanted or hoped, but the alternative is pretty wonderful too.
