To my Future Husband

5/3/2013

Hello my love, 

 I have been writing simple small letters to you for a little while, but I’m not so certain that they really truly say how I feel. I’m going to try to, though I may have borrowed some from others it doesn’t make it any less true. 

 I just want you to know that I’ve been thinking of you and honestly cannot wait to meet you. I always try to imagine seeing you for the first time: your eyes, your smile, your laugh and just be able to get to know you. I know that my imagination will not be able to compare. Wherever you are right now and whatever you may be doing, I just want you to know that I’m praying for you. I pray for you every day. I know you have struggles just as much as I do. You got this!

I also dream of what our lives will be like together. I can’t wait to get to know you and hear about your life. I want to know everything about you that makes you tick, what makes you happy, sad, laugh, and cry. Because I want to make you happy— to comfort you when you are sad, to say the lamest and dumbest jokes ever or act weird just to make you laugh, and I want to be your shoulder to cry on and cry together. I hope to be your best friend as you will be mine. I can’t wait to do everything and anything with you. I can’t wait to cook together, travel, share laughs and stories, have deep conversations, cuddle, pray & seek God together, and to have a family with you. I know our lives together will be such an adventure and I can’t wait! I also can’t wait to face the world with you. We will go through trials and sufferings guarantee but I know that we will make it through together. God will be the center of our marriage and he will bring us closer together. I will work hard to be the best Proverbs 31 woman and wife for you. I’m trying so hard, do remember that! I know you are also trying to be the best Job 29 man for me. Simply, we will be perfect for each other. You are my missing piece as I am yours. 

I will wait for you, my darling. I will stay pure for you. I want no one else but you. I can’t wait to give you all of me, everything of me to you. I can’t wait to meet you and for us to spend the rest of our lives together. Most importantly, I can’t wait to love you with all that I am.

All I have left to say is that I’m waiting here patiently. Come soon my love.

Forever & Always,

Princess

After 4 years of school and 1,460 days of studying and partying hard, everything will change for you. You’ve reached that point in your life where you will finally follow the path you set for yourself and see where it will lead you. Simply, it will be the beginning of the end—the world is your oyster. 

No more marathon days classes, waiting at the library for that 2-4 hour break, late night coffee runs, or locking yourself at your place for the weekend to study. You’re free.

I wish nothing but the best for you. I’m happy that you’re off to do big things in life like what we talked about. Believe it or not, I am extremely proud of you. 

Congratulations, Lonely Boy. 

I’m wonderstruck, blushing all the way home

You always happen to look in my direction when you walk into the room. I, too, stare back and sometimes wonder if we’re both thinking the same thing. Your face have my full attention; is that a slight smile I’m seeing? I can feel that you know my eyes are fully locked into yours. I share laughs with a friend and caught your eyes staring at mine. What is this I’m feeling? Our daily glances seems to gradually develop. I caught you looking at me once more as I head back into my chair. Twin brown eyes locked into each other’s gaze. Could it be? No one has yet to notice how fondly our eyes look into each other, but sometimes, I wish they would. 

Here’s To You, T.

Sometimes I miss you, Sometimes I don’t. 

We could’ve had it all—life, love, and forever. 

But you played my heart to the beat.

It’s time to move on. 

Oh, those blissful days.

Fall 2012—Breakfast at your place, flowers in my hair, kisses on the forehead. 

I will always treasure those memories, but it’s time to move on. 

Spring is near, Summer is at my feet. 

I wish I could spend the rest of 2013 with you…sometimes. 

Predicament Of Lonely Boy

He knows what he wants when he can’t have it; his life’s dilemma has been that he can have anything he wants. In short, he is one of those lives that, until yesterday, seem to posses their own due share of luck as well as any luck that should have been allotted to anyone. He is undeniably handsome, intelligent, athletic, outrageously rich, but, as of yesterday, cannot have what he wants the most. A twenty-two year old with everything handed to him in a silver platter, he lost the most important diamond in his life. A rare diamond. He thinks it isn’t fair;  Then again, his life before yesterday doesn’t seem fair to most either. He has too much money, too many women, too many cars, and too many lies. Life just isn’t fair. 

Got A Secret, Can You Keep It?

Our eyes meet, as they often do, and we both think what we always think. It doesn’t matter how large the crowd or whether you’re with her and I’m with him; we always find one another’s gaze for just a moment. Any longer might give us away. You blink, and life goes on as it was. Fortunately for us both, someone has yet to notice how fondly our eyes smile at each other. But, sometimes, I wish they would.

Epiphany Of A Dream Chaser

Relationships–of all kinds–are like sand held in your hand. Held loosely, with an open hand, the sand remains where it is. The minute you close your hand and squeeze tightly to hold on, the sand trickles through your fingers. You may hold onto some of it, but most will be spilled. A relationship is like that. Held loosely, with respect and freedom for the other person, it is likely to remain intact. But hold too tightly, too possessively, and the relationship slips away and is lost.

We all want to fall in love. Why? Because that experience makes us feel completely alive. Where every sense is heightened, every emotion is magnified, our everyday reality is shattered and we are flying into the heavens. It may only last a moment, an hour, an afternoon. But that doesn’t diminish its value. Because we are left with memories that we treasure for the rest of our lives.

The happiest people on this planet are not those who live on their own terms but are those who change their terms for the ones whom they love.
