HOPEFUL love

I’ve always been alone. Always. Even when I was with him, I was still alone. 

Did you know how lonely it is, to be together in mind, but not in heart?

Apologizing is never out of style. Don’t criticize. ;)

After work naps. After dinner walks. 

Life is splendid.

You told me the blunt, honest truth from day 1. Literally, day 1.

And on our first date, you told me everything. The secrets, regrets, hopes and harms. Everything that would scare me away, everything that could send me retreating back. But it didn’t. Your strength is more than that. You are more. I believe in your strength.

A nap after work is one of the best things about Mondays. 

I don’t cry because I’m sad, I cry because things are so beautiful, and life is so short.

But sometimes I cry because I’m sad, because I really want a hug from you. 

I am a part of the unfolding, creative project of God.

I don’t think I’ve ever smiled so much.

This is good. This is good. This is good. 

It’s hard being all the way over here, but I’m doing God’s will, God’s work. 

I’ll be home soon enough. I miss you.
