I know I haven’t been keeping up with writing writing at all, but things have been busy (well, sort of).
Anyway. Nothing too exciting is going on in my life right now. Just trying to relax and enjoy my time off before school picks back up in September.
However, one of my favorite parts about being home is getting to spend time with Mike. Being away for almost 8 months out of the year can take a toll, but hey, it’s worth it. It makes these few months I have home with him feel more, well, special.
Warning to anyone who (whom?) might be reading this - I’m about to be sentimental [sometimes it’s hard to verbalize what I’m feeling; writing it out seems to help].
I read a quote not too long ago that said ‘Soul mates never die.’ Now, I’m not usually one to fawn over something like that, but it resonated with me. Someone who has an impact on your life can never be forgotten. I’m fortunate enough to have someone in my life who cares about me and loves me for, well, me [quirks and all (for the most part)].
I can say with all my heart that he is one of the most driven, charismatic, charming, and love-able people (persons?) I’ve ever come across. And to be able to have a relationship with him means the world to me. He represents my other half; everything I’m not, he is. And I love that about him. Things just seem to click.
But, it’s so much more than just having a happy relationship. [thus far] Building a life together has been such an exciting, yet overwhelming at times, adventure. If the past is any indication of the future, things will be, well, amazing.
When you really think about it, it’s crazy how much of an impact one person can have on your life. And as silly as it may sound, I’ve never been more excited for the future.
Anyway, it’s 1:30 a.m., and I’m exhausted. Good night.
