Alrighty so I thought I would start it out with explaining the name of the blog. Love being. So simple, isn't it? Where did this come from you ask? Well it came from mycokerewards. Yep, you read that right.
Sometime in 2007 Coke came out with five different figurines, all dealing with a happy theme (or something of the like. I didn't personally see the connection between the five different designs but I imagine that it was about happiness or love). The first four I didn't like at all, and the fifth I didn't understand. At least not at first. Weeks passed and as I racked up my rewards points I thought about those two words. Love being? Love being what? I asked myself as I entered the ten digit code that would grant me three more magical points. And then I suddenly understood.
It sat proudly atop my desk at home for three years and now it sits upon my desk at college. I look at it everyday and remind myself to love being. When I try to explain to friends or family what it means, or at least what it means to me, they never understand. "But why does it just say love being? That doesn't make sense. You need another word after it." No. No you don't. It does make sense and I just wish you could understand so you could revel in its meaning too. It took me a while to get past my lack of understanding. Just think about the phrase and I hope you will capisci.
So that is the story behind my blog's name. Why it's titled Love Being. Cause you just need to love being. And speaking of all this love, why not end this post with a lovely song sung by none other than Jason Mraz?
