The Love of ASL

Means, I love you. My love for ASL (American Sign Language) comes from something deep within me. ASL is unique in my eyes because it is not a language that is spoken but a language that is expressed. Naturally we express ourselves in the tones of our voice and body language. However, ASL is strictly expressed without a voice, something that is told through hands, body language and facial expression. Yes, people do these things everyday but who really pays attention to it? If people payed attention to body language more than just someones voice then they would have better communication skills in my opinion. We tend to make our voice sound appropriate but ignore what our body language is saying, what we truly want to say. So this is why I feel ASL is unique.

The one we should wait for...

I will find someone who accepts that I am different from any other human being they have met before. I will be accepted and believed in by this man, while others look at me & have nothing but doubt. I look different and I act different but I am real. He will treat me with respect when temptation comes knocking he will answer the door and say his rejections and slam the door, loosing me will be his biggest fear and would never risk it. He will be confident, his own weird, and when he faces insecurities he will tell me and work through them. Not sulk and act in chaos then use it as an excuse. He will never tell me he thinks I am too good for him because he will be my equal, the one who can calm me down and the one who bring me joy when I am upset. The one who let me in and do what he does for me. Real as can be. As long as you are real with me I will be real with you. Give him my all? I will. Past events tell me not to trust ever again. But for you I will. Until then...
