MY CHRISTMAS FEELINGS TO YOU
You give the gift of love in such an overwhelmingly sweet way, that I am unsure where to start. You give me confidence, and when I am with you my worries vanish. You pull me miles away from the hardship life dishes out. & if I am confronted with hardship, we confront it together, and I have more confidence.
We were all meant to love, that’s what heaven is about. You bring a slice of heaven to me. You erase insecurities with your awesome, *altruistic" personality, but most of all with your love. Because of a lot of failure in high school and college, then in the summer and early fall of 2004 (when we discussed it, you said I was “trying too hard”).
& then, there’s you, Sweetheart! I feel like I’m loved, that my life is going in the right direction. It’s such a horrible feeling when you witness things getting worse and worse. Yet, there I am with you. Life is going well, I’m doing the right things, my life will get better I can’t tell or emphasize enough the feeling of confidence, happiness, security that I feel - all because of you. Where I felt like life was a cruel hardship in 2002 and 2003, now I treasure it. I drive more carefully; I wake up happier. I go to sleep knowing you love me!!
I can describe some of the relief I feel - I’m not going to be unloved. My benevolence will be used to make you happier. I won’t go through life misunderstood and overlooked and unloved. You’re in my life, and I feel like tearing up with joy that you and I are one!! I want to be in your arms for a very long time.
You have resolve, you are very strong, this isn’t short term, this is long term! I will love you always. I LOVE YOU, love a beautiful worthy, superhero-like strong woman (you have a super human ability not to need much sleep), I love you............ you, who are a woman just as determined as I am to make sure this loving relationship go for a long time.
