Thankful

My dearest love,

Thank you again for kissing me awake this morning. I have to tell you you are, by far, the best way to start my day. I don't even notice the time anymore, and I certainly don't regret or resent it: I have long loved that predawn hour. I get up and get things moving, have some kind of breakfast, chat with you as I make lunches, and you drive to work. Just all in all, I feel better for having spoken with you every morning. No one in my life has ever affected me that way. Yet another one of our firsts. :)

Love, I have had the feeling for some time that we have something very special here, between us. We have so many points of confluence, so many similar things, yet we are very different people and have faced different challenges in our lives. We can lean on each other to get through those things that challenge us the most every day. We are similar but different, and that is what makes the "us" so much stronger.

Last night, I was feeling so close to you, feeling so wonderful in the afterglow, and my heart just filled to overflowing with gratitude for your existence, your place in my life, which seems to grow by the day. You have helped me so much, but this is not a "thank you" kind of gratituide, more of a "thank every sacred thing *for* you"... I have never felt so awed and grateful for a person's existence before.

I know you don't see yourself as anything special, Scott, but you fit me so perfectly, and I feel like I fit you. Together we are greater than the sum of our various, banged-up parts. I truly beieve we can accomplish great things together: it sounds cliche, but it's true. Somehow, we found each other, somehow, we love each other, and somehow, we will make it work, in the end.

I love you. And even now, even here, so physically distant, I feel loved by you. You are as close as my own heart.

Have a good day lover, I will talk to you soon.

Always and all ways yours,


*Briana*
