Here I am, mid life, professional, educated, and experienced. Why is it then, that I sit here for hours, wondering how to put into words the feelings I have inside. What is love?...I really don't think I know, at least not how to put it into words. When I divorced, I was not looking for any relationships. If you read our story, then you know the most unusual way we met. Something magic happened that day. Something that changed my life forever, and made me realize that angels really do exist.
Donna has shown me what true, unconditional love really is, and in so many ways, has allowed me to be able to show others also. It's funny in a way....no matter how hard my day was, how sad I might be, or tired...just a look, touch, or hug from her, and the entire weight of the world simply melts away....leaving me totally relaxed, and feeling safe.
Two souls, joined in some mystical way, being both a rock...solid, and strong to support, and at the same time soft...like a billowing cloud, gentle and caring.
As I sit, and listen to the music, and try to think of the right words, nothing comes out...well, nothing but this rambling on. How do you describe it? How can you tell others what love is....how complete and fullfilled it makes you when someone else shares your life, pain, sorrow, happiness....each with the same total commitment.
At our wedding, the minister told us many things....but maybe the most important was that love knows no bounds...no limits....has no expectations, nor judgements...and at the same time bonds 2 people to one...encompassing them with the strength and courage of a thousand lions....
When I lie next to her....just before sleep overtakes me...I feel that we are truely one...not 2 individuals, but somehow we have reached out, and bridged our souls together. And every morning when I awaken, I realize that she is not a dream....but a miracle come true.
She has shown me that true love is the most valuable thing in the universe, and to be able to experience it has filled my heart with more joy than I could have ever imagined. Three years, and not a cross word....no arguments....nothing but joy, and knowledge that I am richer than all the other men in the world...
To my darling wife, Donna, I love you more today than the first day we met.
Now and forever...I am yours completely....
Your husband, and soulmate,
Rick
