Love. Wow. We seek it, we want it, as humans we need it. Love can work miracles and often does. It can also break our hearts, where the light comes into our souls from the cracks and the breaks.
For me, I am enjoying it. There is a miracle in the joy of relenting control and giving yourself to another. And I do not mean sexually, I mean spiritually, mentally, emotionally. To drop the guard and the walls, to exhale, open your eyes, and inhale with eyes look back at you, smiling.
And I welcome it, all of it. It is a miracle this man found me and recognized the possibilities. A miracle that I was finally in a space where I could accept what he has to offer. And a miracle that our two lices are lining up.
And to make plans for the future is fun and exhilarating. Trusting another with your heart and future is something else. There are vacations, thoughts, ideas, jobs and life to be built, the two of us at the helm.
Finally, a man who knows what to do with a strong willed, independent, stubborn, and clumsy red head. A man who smiles at my faults and laughs at my jokes. Finally a,man who wants to build with me, instead of control me.
Life is short. Find the love and give yourself to it.
