The U. of Iew

Every now and then, you’re fortunate enough to meet someone you really connect with. A friend, a lover, a partner- the connection takes many forms. Sure, you make a lot of friends and acquaintances throughout your life, but these connections are different. This is unconditional love, the ability to see right through someone and love them exactly as they are. My BFF is a great example. I learned so much just from being in her company. Even now, I put more work into keeping in touch with her than anyone else.

Where am I going with this…

During a dark time in my life, I met someone amazing. Someone who helped me learn more about myself… the type of person that I want to be… the goals that I want to achieve. I’m incredibly grateful for this connection.

Thank you for being here for me. Thank you for pushing me to excel when I just wanted to lay in bed and hide from the world. Thank you for your sense of humor, for reminding me how to smile. Thank you for the little glimpses I’m allowed into your thoughts, feelings, and memories. Thank you for reminding me that I am worthwhile, that I do have a place here, that I’m loved and wanted.

Simply put… thank you for existing. I am so happy, fortunate, and humbled to be a part of your life.
