The Power of Connection

Ever realize the power of connection?
When timing and space and people just align, and suddenly you find yourself in front of the most amazing person.
The power of connection.
I have felt it many times in my life. Through friends, and relationships
With friends, it is a different kind of connection, I have always believed that certain people come into your life at a certain time, for a certain reason.
As I grow older, I realize just how true this is.
You need certain people during different times of your life, and you realize, often much later, that you don't need some of them forever. They were just  meant for that specific time.

But then you come across someone who you realize may have been placed into your life for a very certain reason: a reason that will last forever. Comfort, maturity, security, education, romance, sarcasm, playful, family, love. All of your life you have been waiting for this connection. All the hurt, suffering, and pain. All the good, success, and hope. It all comes together in this one connection between a man and a woman, where neither is perfect, but they are perfect for each other. They promise to always run towards each other, never away. They take in your past, and rather than criticize, they make friendly jokes of what could of been...just to see your sadness turn to happiness for a brief moment. And they are thankful that you didn't take that path, for if you did, you would have never found each other. 

I am so blessed to have found what I believe to be my life-long connection. It just makes everything else, my whole life, my whole past, my whole future, make sense.

Enjoying each moment of this surreal connection that found its way to me. A smidgen of anxiety, as I wonder what I have done to deserve this and will it be taken away. But alas. No rush. Just small sweet moments. Laughter. And True And Complete Happiness.

He's The One

He's the one. 
I found him.
It's the feeling I have been waiting for my whole life.
I feel loved, respected, and cared for.
We both want the future.
We will take it slowly. Of course.
Learn from our past mistakes, understand life's lessons, and move forward.
Never, before, have I ever had a connection this strong with another person.
Cautiously, slowly, a bit of a risk, a bit of nervousness, but with insurmountable excitement I do believe I have found what I have been looking for my entire life.

I will remember this day and this feeling for a long time.
