Dear, I love our morning dates. I love playing all kinds of games with you - not to compete, but simply to enjoy every moment. I love our long conversations before bed. I love when you get upset but quickly forget why. I love our traditions, even when we momentarily forget about them.

You are my support, my steady shoulder, my firm word, my wisdom.

I am happy because I know: our love is in our hands. Our relationship is in our hands. Only ours. It’s thrilling, uplifting, inspiring. Realizing that everything - both joy and challenges - is merely a reflection of our actions and thoughts shifts my entire perspective on life.

Thank you for always reminding me to look at the compass, not the clock.

We still have so much to learn, so much to create, and perhaps even something to break in order to rebuild. But with you, I’d go to the ends of the earth. 🕊

If you recognize yourself in these words, write to me…
