I’ve given up on chasing relationships with people and places that don’t completely want me.

“

I know I love you because what I feel for you sometimes is too much for my body to hold.

“

I’m not even sure how we fell in love or why, but here we are, still together to this day.

“

Want more. Expect more. People are not projects. Stop trying to change the ones who aren’t willing or able to change themselves.

“

This is my favorite love story. This moment.

“

After college, marriage seemed more like the logical next step than anything either of them was passionate about doing. So marry they did, in a low-key ceremony that had all the enthusiasm of two people signing a cell phone contract.

“

One day, you’re going to be the best thing that’s ever happened to someone and they’re going to love your randomness and quirks and the things that make you YOU.

“

Here in the space between is the tale of their illogical story and how across countless boundaries, obstacles, and culture, they somehow understood each other in a way that surpassed language itself.

“

Maybe it was me.

“

Give me yourself so that I can love every part of you, so that I can stand beside you when the storms come, so that we can make meaning of this life, even when it hurts.
