A BETTER VERSION OF MYSELF My love, A year ago my life changed irrevocably. I was madly in love and yet I was in total misery because I had to live a life without you. Learning that you felt the same way about me filled my heart with joy but also with some sadness at the thought that despite these feelings we might have to still live separate lives. So although we have had our ups and downs I would not trade it for the world because it has meant that I've had the opportunity to share so much of myself with you for the past year. If something went well you have always been the first person I wanted to share the news with. If something bad happened you were the one person I knew could make me feel better about a situation. In one year we have helped each other in so many ways, even being there for each other for two deaths in the family. Your love and support gives me strength. You have helped me love myself more and grow into a better version of myself. You have taught me how to love and be selfless and because of you I have learned what true love is. A little over a year ago I made a list of the qualities I wanted from a partner. People say that when you put your wishes and desires out into the universe the universe has a way of giving it to you. I feel like you were sent to me as an answer to my prayers. And while our situation has been far from ideal we have still managed to grow together and continuously move forward together. I don't know what the future holds for us, what other trials and tribulations we will face. All I know is that with you by my side obstacles become easier to overcome, the highs become higher and the lows are that much easier to bear. I look forward to facing the world with you, battling or celebrating whatever it throws at us. I love you very much. Happy anniversary. ------the love letter collection submitted 12:33 AM EST Wednesday, December 14, 2011 |
