To Be in Love

This whole being in love thing sure is a wonderful feeling. I can't seem to comprehend how I could fall in love with this perfect woman. Not only did I find her, but I love her and she loves me back. Life is just a little bit more beautiful because she is in it.

I hesitate to call her my girlfriend, because she is so much more than that. She is my partner, in crime, in crime fighting, in love, and in adventure. I no longer have to experience the world alone. She makes me feel a little more alive, while knowing I was okay before on my own. I know I can do this all on my own, but it is nice to finally not have to. I have a partner who helps me process emotions and time, life and love, deceit and manipulation, fears of abandonment.

I find that she loves me for exactly who I am, as I am in each moment. I don't have to hustle to move things, hide things, or fix things. I am just allowed to exist as I am and she not only tolerates it, but actually likes me for it. I feel like the luckiest guy on the earth. And no, I have no idea why she is drinking milk in this photo :)
