A relationship truly breaks when its components don’t love each other anymore. Trust is something created and removed by the heart, which in itself is a very emotional and dramatic “organ”. So, trust isn’t to be trusted perhaps. “No longer caring” should not be something jumped to so easily, especially when no one has said that they don’t care. Caring and having the capacity to react are two very separate things. A relationship can always recover and always live as long as there is sufficient love.

When does a relationship truly break? Is it the moment that there is no trust between the individuals, or is it the moment that one member ceases to care that the other is in pain? If a relationship makes it to either of those situations, can it ever recover?

Any guesses on what it is?
Newspaper Articles Suck
I am working on a research paper for my Developmental Psychology course, and I’m running into a lot of newspaper articles that would be useful if they would actually cite what their source is instead of saying “a study by <insert nationality here> researchers indicates <some overly grandiose claim that article doesn’t prove>”. Do these undereducated newspaper reporters not think that some people may find their information more useful if it were possible to look up the original source material instead of simply taking the reporter’s word for it?
There is not a lot of information available for “The development of gender identity in children raised by homosexual couples”, so every little bit I find is helpful, but it takes a long time to sort newspaper articles and try to guess based on a researcher’s name and the generic description of the work which journal article the study might actually be included in. I get the feeling that some of the people who write these journal articles are human article mills. I think Dr. Ruth McNair has about 200 articles by herself, which makes locating a specific study relating to one aspect of her work a little hard.

I spent a lot of today in the kitchen with Chris. We made clam chowder as well as potato soup.

More still life with fruit. I’m not sure if this is considered progress on the project.

Chris drinks a beverage that starts neon orange, and he left it laying on the counter unattended, so in accordance to house rules, if its abandoned, its a valid subject, so a few black sheets later, bam.
