Hey, Um where's that corner piece?

Don't you settle here because you're tired, you still have legs to walk.
Don't you settle here when the light is dim, the sunrise is not too far.


A relationship is like a puzzle. As often as that analogy has been used, time after time (Cyndi Lauper 4 Life), yes...time after time it holds up in court. Let me break the fuck down this analogy. You have a puzzle, you have two people that very much would like to complete this puzzle. You see the picture on the box and it looks glorious. 1000 piece puzzle....meh....we got this shit. So you two commit to completing the puzzle as a team. Easier said than done. You may get one piece here and there, trust me when I say never ever will you get all the pieces at once. It's going to take time to earn the pieces, and hard work to fit them appropriately as you go. Maybe you get the upper corner a bit completed, maybe its a cute little kitten wearing a bonnet. Don't you dare get too excited though. You still have a long way to go kiddo. Even if you build the outer frame, which is always the best way to start, that's just the beginning of your jigsaw puzzle. Chances are, one of you will lose interest in the puzzle leaving the other to do the brunt of the work. Then you start to resent that darling feline and it's stupid hat. 


Take your time to scout out the right person to commit to a puzzle with. The experience could be so much different and quite enjoyable. If it starts to feel like a task, you may wan't to reconsider your purchase. 




If you one day find yourself with a puzzle where all of your pieces have fallen into place, frame that shit. And by frame that shit I mean...Here we go Beyonce: "If you like it then you should'a put a ring on it :) All my single ladies...Allll my single ladies."
