I've never felt this way before. I've never looked at someone while they slept so soundly and peacefully beside me and been so content... So thoroughly convinced that this is the man I've been looking for and waiting for my whole life! So comfortable with him, and so secure in the knowledge that he loves me in the same way: deeply, completely, and unconditionally. He is SO worth all the heartache I had to go through to find him... And I will hold him close to me and breathe in his scent forever... And never take him for granted!
I told him I had started a blog, but I haven't shown it to him or given him the address because he thinks blogs are stupid lol... That no one cares about the minutiae of anyone else's life, and he's probably right. Chances are he'll never read this... But that's ok... That's not why I wrote it. I like blogs because you can express your thoughts and feelings and perhaps put something into words for a complete stranger that has felt the same way but couldn't express it. I think blogs are about finding commonalities... Finding camaraderie with others, and feeling more connected to the world around you. The world we live in is one of oversharing but unprecedented loneliness. Status updates, tweets, blogs, etc... Share what you think online and everyone will know, but does that mean they know YOU? No. Call your friends... Hear their voices, and keep alive those personal connections...
My life the last few years has been consumed with living online and struggling to feel like I was a part of something. But the last two months with this man have made me realize that the only way to belong is to do it in real life. Cyberspace is no substitute for the real thing!! And all of a sudden, I feel like I belong again... Life is good!
