what an incredible meeting it was. from the first time i met him, literally, the first time, i was impressed by him...to see him again a year later was coincidental...and then the following year, to see him again, to be remembered by him was...intoxicating.

i've heard people say these high and lofty ideas when it came to love and i honestly never thought it was true. i thought they had to be exaggerating even in the slightest. but every day i experience exponentially more love and excitement being with him than the day before. to write of the things that are in my heart or that he says to me would sound like i had made them up.........

we begin again....

while i don't think 6 months is a lengthy time by any stretch of the imagination, it feels like a lifetime has passed since i last posted...to read where i was and to know where i am now...so much has gone on...and so i thought it appropriate to begin again where we left off...
many previous postings have been about the lament of my love life, the torment and sometimes tumultuous existence i had as a single woman. and really it's been in these past 6 months that my life has changed profoundly and permanently. i no longer wish to be seen or known; i am known. i no longer want for things i could only dream of; my dreams have been met and entirely exceeded. i no longer hope that one day i will be loved and chosen; he chooses me and he loves me incredibly so. there is no hiding, no embarrassment, no fear, no pain, no trepidation, just love. this deep-seated, pure, unconditional, unabashed, limitless love for my other.

someone asked awhile ago who i would like to meet...my only response was 'a soul similar to mine, somewhere in the vicinity of my arms'.
and somehow that happened.
