Wise words from mathilde (in a locked post of someone else's, but I got mathilde's permission to quote this:

Love and determination, love and strength, caring, communication, mediation, compromise, honesty with yourself and others, and plain old hard work can overcome many a lousy situation. But love itself is a rather weak and wishy-washy force, easily dissuaded and blinded by its own shiny purity. It's just not enough, on its own, to fix anything.

Indeed, it isn't. And sometimes the willingness to do those other things falls short in the face of the shiny purity of love.

Nah, I'm not feeling bitter at ALL tonight.
