A Night I’ll Never Forget
The summer of 2019 is when I met him the man that would change it all. I was out with some friends and we got a call to meet up with another group and a different bar for one of their friends birthday. Little did I know when I walked in my life was going to change. There he was Sitting across the bar in a in a silk short sleeve button up shirt the hugged his muscles and showed off his tattoos and he had a lot of them. Early that night my guy friend Kyle was trying to set me up with men at different bars and I wasn’t interested in any of them. Until we arrived at this bar he immediately caught my eye and I grab kyle point and said “If you want to hook me up with someone to night I want that man right there.” His response shocked me and made me so excited he said “oh him I know that guy he’s actually apart of our group.” I was so happy when he said that he went on to say “ I got you I’ll talk you up to him.” He processed to walk over to this muscular 6’4 tattooed Adonis and talked to him. The whole time the guy was looking at me and smiling. My friend waved me over to introduce me. “Amber this is Joe, joe this is amber.” Joe then say hi and continues on to say “when he told me you thought I was cute I thought he was messing with me.” I then said with a puzzled look on my face “why would you think he was joking you’re hot and if I’m being honest I spotted you as soon as I walked in the front door.” A huge grin came across his face but before he could really say any more a mutual and very drunk friend of ours Vinny came over to steal him away. I gave Vinny this look that made him come back and question it. I said “bro your cock blocking” laughing and going on to say “I was trying to talk to him” Vinny thinking I was having a hard time goes “oh shit you want to talk to my boy Joe I got you” and before I could even stop him he goes over and start talking to Joe. Meanwhile Joe’s just looking at me smiling and laughing Kyle goes over and goes “bro I already help amber with him you’re just fucking it up.” Vinny steps back stumbling and goes “oh shit my bad” everyone laughs and Joe comes back over and I just said “ignore whatever he said he’s wasted” both of us laughing. The night comes close to a closes well the bar was closing so we all decided to go back to Vinny’s to hangout. Joe and I sit on the couch and I examine his tattoos finding out that we have so much in common. I end up getting his number and we take a picture for his contact of him bitting my knee goofy but super cute. He didn’t drive there and was ready to go home so I offered to drive him home. He ended up inviting me in and it ended up being a great end to a great night. This meet-cute was the beginning of a relationship I still cherish till this day. I got to spend three amazing years getting to know this goofy, handsome, caring, big nerd, beautiful man and the time we spend together means the world to me. I can honestly say I loved that man and part of me always will even if I was to afraid to tell him he was my best friend and one of the great loves of my life.

A letter
It’s the most perfect night. Not humid but warm enough that a slight breeze is refreshing. Feeling the coolness from the ocean water in the wind. The sky is beautiful. A perfect midnight blue, the stars look magnificent in the luminescence of the moon. Making you feel so incredibly small. With the smallest clouds, perfectly scattered across the horizon. Just endless mystique. Such breathtaking elegance across the ocean water. But the most breathtaking sight was that of my wife. Between the moonlight on her face and that infectious smile she wore upon her lips. The way her eyes lit up like a kid at an amusement park. Full of pure bliss and happiness. Being energized by the moon. I almost wished time would have stopped, it seemed like it had for a moment. I wish I could have captured this moment on film. The way she ran through the sand. As if she didn’t have a care in the world and she damn sure didn’t. Even when she faced a fear of hers and climbed up that life guard tower just to sit with me on it and enjoy the view and each other. With my head in the crook of her neck and her arms wrapped so tightly around me as if she were afraid to let go. As if to lose me. Even when we had noticed an unidentified animal in the sand and her first instinct was we have to get out of here. Time wasn’t real. You could just feel the love in every touch, every word, every laugh, every tease, every look. She takes my breath away. My heart swells at the memory. Walking through the sand in our bare feet. We wrote the story of us in the sand that night. Starting with our names. Bonded, together forever. Sharing glances of pure unconditional love. Kisses filled with such passion and commitment it made my knees weak. The beating of our hearts together as we embraced one another. Every part of my body is always set on fire the second she grazes my skin. Even when she’s near and not physically touching me. I know she can feel it. In this moment I know love.

I'm raising little Gentelmen
I am sure we have all heard the saying "boys will be boys." I have heard it for as long as I can remember. I remember it being used for boys weird behaviors, such as climbing on things and jumping off of them at heights they should not have been at, and all kinds of weird things like eating dirt and insects. However slightly more recently it has apparently become an excuse for boys to be bad, like really bad. This is not something that should continue. Respect for each other and their boundaries is a must.

Love
Love it changes and it changes us. Love starts out brand new, full of adventure and fire. You think there is nothing in this world that could ever compare to the love you’re feeling for your first love, then the arguments start, nothing you say is right, nothing you do works; the heartbreak comes and the relationship comes to an end. You meet someone new and they’re called despair, they come bearing gifts such as crying, pain in your chest and the feeling of worthlessness. It takes time but you heal and find that you’ve become someone a little different, someone used to pain and you’re familiar with the sting so the next time you go to fall in love, you go in with a shield. One where you let someone only see parts of you, nothing too vulnerable. You don’t want to take the chance anymore.

The Three Loves Theory
There's a theory, that throughout our life time, we will fall in love three times, at different stages of our lives. Each love feels totally unique from the other and teaches us something different that shapes us into the person that we are becoming. The three types of love are; the First Love, the Intense Love, and the Unconditional Love.

How To Fly The Mountain
An artist’s spirit, considers the cold wind in New York like a dance partner. You show up and reach out for each other. Sometimes the natural forces and the push and pull of the elements takes over. If you are walking to work with your arms wrapped around yourself the blustery gusts push you two steps forward and two steps back, just like a Salsa dance. The music that is in your head, is from your own desire, and the rhythm you create swirls around you in the movement of imagination.

My Mind Drags Me Out
We sat in my wife’s ’93 Suburban, the summer air creeping in through open windows to caress our skin. We were at our favorite pull off on one of the back roads leading to home. The sun was setting. The air was still. Even the kids were silent as they tried to devour their ice cream treats before the heat got the best of them. I gazed over at my wife. The fading light was hitting her irises at just the right angle to illuminate the ocean of greens and blues. She smiled and bobbed her body happily as she scooped a spoonful of ice cream into her mouth. She was just as magical as the day we met.

Lost and Found
Grief is a funny old thing. There is no rule book in existence on how and when it presents but, as she sat rubbing the curves of the exquisite emerald stone on her slender finger, something from deep within her gut hurt severely like pain she had never felt before. It came on so suddenly that it took her breath away and consumed all of her like an attacker had pounced stabbing her through her solar plexus. Physically she felt it, but she wasn’t physically hurt - at least not visibly. Emotionally she was drowning in it and then the tears followed suit flowing endlessly like a broken and worn tap relentlessly dripping. She struggled to breathe and buckled under the heaviness of all that had collected over the last few weeks.

She
When I saw her, I knew. I knew I had taken a life. I have never seen owls on this road before. Come to think of it, I have never been out here this late at night. If I hadn’t seen her, I could have mistaken her screech for my screaming tires against the road. Being the only one out here, I know I was speeding. I need to stop, don’t I? I won’t be able to live with myself if I don’t at least get out and see if it's alright. I leave my car door open and my keys in the ignition as I step towards her. She is a female, as I can tell by the color of her neck. She also isn’t moving. I can’t believe this; how could I have not seen her? Is this a sign, dear Universe? Why did this have to happen to such a sacred creature, and why did I have to be the one to do it?! I can just feel the ever-growing sensation of isolation inside me pulsating stronger and stronger.

Salmon Falls
The barn owl lives very quietly at the top of the barn. Where the barn roof meets and he can lay tucked away whenever he so pleases. It was a curious day as I sat, feet thrown upon a bale of hay. The barn owl soared back into the barn with a small letter in his mouth. He slowly dropped it as he flew to his perch atop the barn. The piece of paper waved back and forth in the air until it lightly drifted and fell right beside me.
