A Perfect Pebble

I want to post this because it is important that I let you know that you inspire me to make my life better. 

So I will start it with this line.  When she left us, I was devastated. 

I am still in the devastation that she left. And I am glad that you are actually not beside me while I rebuild a part of my life. I am happy that I find you somewhere else - in the finish line. My finish line that tells me I'm over the devastation.

Seeing you there inspires me to continue my walk in a more strategic way so I can reach the end a little bit quicker. I want to start my life with you the way we should. The way we want it.

Thank you for just staying. For being there. And also here.

When this is done, I will find that perfect pebble to surprise you and place it in your palm. That is neither a promise nor a vow. 

That is my today and within all of my now is you.
