I once heard a question that both unnerved me and made things
startlingly clear: is it more important to love someone with all your
heart…
…or to be loved by someone with all of theirs?
We all want to fall head-over-heels in love, and we all want the other
person to love us back exactly the same. But that’s not usually the way it
turns out.
In fact, I think that’s rarely the way it turns out. Both people may be in
love, but it always seems one person is more in love than the other.
So… if you had to choose, which would it be?
Love someone else passionately and completely, even if they don’t feel
as powerfully as you?
Or be loved passionately and completely, even if you don’t feel exactly
the same towards them?
I thought I knew the answer when I heard the question.
Then I found out years later that no… I didn’t know the answer at all.
Present Day
I sat across from the Rolling Stone editor in his office overlooking
midtown Manhattan.
I’d arrived 15 minutes early for my meeting. I thought I was there to
interview for some lowly staff position. Layout grunt… gofer… toilet
scrubber.
Actually, I hoped and dreamed it was a staff position. As desperate as I
was, I would have taken an unpaid internship.
I mean, come on. It was Rolling Stone.
Glen the editor sat across the desk from me, hands folded, serene. He
was bald on top with curly hair around the sides, and he wore black, plasticframe hipster glasses. His personal sense of style was somewhere between
70’s Rocker and College Professor.
“Kaitlyn Reynolds. Finally we meet. Good to put a face with the voice
over the phone.”
“Same here. Nice to meet you, too.”
“Journalism degree from Syracuse, right?”
“Yes.”
“When did you graduate?”
“A year ago.” I put on a polite smile. “Almost to the day.”
“I read the pieces you emailed me. Not bad. Not great… but not bad.”
Not great… but not bad.
My temper spiked a little bit. I’m a bit of a hothead sometimes.
But I calmed myself down by thinking, When an editor at Rolling Stone
says your stuff isn’t bad, ignore the ‘not great’ part.
“Well, I’m still working on building up my portfolio – ”
Glen interrupted me, ignoring what I was saying. “There was something
I especially liked, a short story you wrote for the Syracuse literary
magazine.”
I frowned. “I… didn’t include that in the email.”
“I know. I went and tracked it down on the internet. I liked it. Had a
distinctive voice I don’t really see in your articles.”
My jaw set a little. “Um… thank you?”
Glen smiled. “I’m just saying I think you’ve got it in you to be a very
good writer. It hasn’t come out yet, but you have a lot of potential. But
you’re going to need to bring it out quick if this is going to work.”
My heart raced.
This sounded like it might be something better than a toilet-scrubbing
position.
