This is what I tell myself, anyway

So, faith can move mountains and all, but where do you want them? I think most moutains are already perfectly situated.

Faith, cannot make someone fall in love with you, right? Sorta common knowledge. We often hope for the change of a person's will, citing machievellian claims that it is for their own good.

Today, on my walk home I saw a snail and almost stopped to pick it up and move it off of the sidewalk. To help it, right? But, we claim that hardship is for our good. That did not appease me because a few feet later there was a dead worm being swarmed by feasting ants. The realist in me said, "eat or be eaten, circle of life. Those ants probably have a family depending on them." I was pleased with my choice, not because the ants,needed food, the snail was moving slowly toward the grass, I could see the glistening trail. It would simply take it a while, but due to considerations about the ant families. I thought, yeah, you know people often try to help without thinking of the consequences. I almost picked up the snail and totally frightened and disoriented him and back home somewhere his wife and kids would be patiently waiting for daddy to drag his sorry butt back home. And that is what I reminded myself as I walked on. "At least he will eventually get home. Home is a better goal than merely staying alive or finding an easier way.
But now, back to why I originally wrote this post. A man was bragging about his wife. I loved it so much! He honestly feels like he tricked her into marrying him. Soooo cute. I instantly thought "hey! Maybe you cannot force someone to love you, but you can surely somehow force them into marrying you. Where there is a will there is a way. Then, once married, the other party might somehow reach the conclusion that they wanted to marry you all along." Just a thing I was thinking to myself when I started considering lyrics of a song, although what song escapes me now, funny that.
