Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find
someone who can completely turn your world around. You
tell them things that you’ve never shared with
another soul and they absorb everything you say and
actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the
future, dreams that will never come true, goals that
were never achieved and the many disappointments life
has thrown at you. When something won
derful happens, you can’t wait to tell
them about it, knowing they will share in your
excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you
when you are hurting or laugh with you when you make
a fool of yourself. Never do they hurt your feelings
or make you feel like you are not good enough, but
rather they build you up and show you the things
about yourself that make you special and even
beautiful. There is never any pressure, jealousy or
competition but only a quiet calmness when they are
around. You can be yourself and not worry about what
they will think of you because they love you for who
you are. The things that seem insignificant to most
people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable
treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever.
Memories of your childhood come back and are so clear
and vivid it’s like being young again. Colours
seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter seems part
of daily life where before it was infrequent or
didn’t exist at all. A phone call or two during
the day helps to get you through a long day’s
work and always brings a smile to your face. In their
presence, there’s no need for continuous
conversation, but you find you’re quite content
in just having them nearby. Things that never
interested you before become fascinating because you
know they are important to this person who is so
special to you. You think of this person on every
occasion and in everything you do. Simple things
bring them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind
or even a storm cloud on the horizon. You open your
heart knowing that there’s a chance it may be
broken one day and in opening your heart, you
experience a love and joy that you never dreamed
possible. You find that being vulnerable is the only
way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure
that’s so real it scares you. You find strength
in knowing you have a true friend and possibly a soul
mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems
completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your
only hope and security is in knowing that they are a
part of your life.
