You Make A Difference

From the moment you stepped into my world, I knew, in an instant that my life would change forever. Something about you, drew me in like a moth to a flame. Your smile that I knew was hiding the pain. The beauty that I saw was not what you saw, when looking into the mirror. The weakness hidden by the strength, the struggles and suffering that were never shown to others. Your smiling face that I knew was holding back the tears. The immense energy that you emitted when you walked into the room, was somehow dampened by the damage done by others.

Your hug was one of the most beautiful I had encountered but...there whispering from your soul, was a little voice warning me to be careful and tread lightly, as your heart had been broken before and is still healing. That same voice asking me to be kind and understanding, with the fragile parts of you. The happiness on your face could not hide the sadness in your eyes. You were a complete stranger yet I knew you so well. In you...I saw bits of ME.

We all meet at least one person in our lifetime that we feel we have known forever. I call that a spiritual connection. A bond that goes beyond the physical and becomes an intimate feeling. You know them like you know yourself. You learn that you have more in common than you ever thought. It becomes laughing out loud funny, when you talk and find out you share so many things. You start to question things like "maybe we were together in another life." We share experiences, feelings and opinions. We see each other as better than most see us. We click, jive, are in tune, can relate and sometimes even cry as though we were one. We just really vibe.

It's not something to figure out and maybe we are not supposed to understand it. It is what it is. I find myself asking questions and then wondering what you would think. I know when you are tired and you know when I am having a bad day. We share some of the same beliefs and values. Sometimes it feels like we share the same heart. I believe we were put into each other's lives for a reason. What that is only time will tell.

When I feel like a failure, you want me to succeed. When you want to give up I will always help you move ahead. When I am sad you try your best to make me smile. When you are down and out I will pick you up. I will forever have your back, no matter what! And I know you will have mine! When I feel ugly you make me feel beautiful and when you think you look like shit, I will tell you how hot you look to me. You know when to back off, when to pull me closer and when to just leave me completely alone until I work it out.

You make a difference and I hope you will always know that, and should you forget...I will always remind you. I trust you with my secrets, my hopes and dreams, my needs and wants, my desires and my life. We are all a little fragile including me, so handle with care until I can mend the broken shards of me. Take me by the hand and tell me it will be alright. Stand by my side and be my equal and should I fall be the one who picks me up because I don’t want it to be anyone else. Do YOU and do it the best you can. That’s the person that means the most to me.

Love Much, G.
