11.22 - A Heavenly Number and Birthday of an Angel

It is on this very day 33 years ago that My Dearest Angel opened her eyes and took her first breath. And it would be many breathes later that she would walk into my life and change it forever more. She would bring joy that I would have never known otherwise and wisdom through both pleasure and pain that could only be experienced through the deepest of loves...for it is only out of deep love that we grow through our challenges as opposed to drift apart.

My Dearest, I am humbled by your beauty, by the very thoughts of what your being in my life truly means to me and by what we have created in our 12 years spent loving one another. Even more humbling is how I have watched you change many other's lives, those that come to you for peace, love, and strength in their most desperate of times.

So it is on this day 11.22 that I raise my glass to you in clebration of not only all that you have done to change my life, but how you continue to change the world in your own special way...one soul at a time.

I love you, My Dearest Angel...truly, madly, deeply.

Holding You Closely - Loving You Deeply

My Dearest,

You have brought so much into my world and often without effort...for it wasn't until I met you that I opened the door for so many wonderful things to enter into my life, which I wouldn't have experienced otherwise.

You are the one who would start me on this journey of becoming a man although it wouldn't be an easy road and would take a lot of patience.

Maybe you knew that when you signed up for this assignment...knew that you would have to hold back and save your strength for the challenges that we would one day face and have to conquer in order to stay together.

I look back with admiration at the various times in our lives where you rose up and showed strength that seemed beyond that of the girl that I fell in love with. It seems that "Girl" no longer does you justice and even feels uncomfortable as it leaves my lips...it is the strength of a woman that I see whan I look at you today.

You are the strongest woman that I've ever had in my life...I can cite your strength in knowing how you have battled your ego, your own limits, your hidden desires...to stay in this place with me.

It is through this journey and through your love that I feel the man appearing as I admire the woman that you have become. In this very state of battle-weariness, I have learned the true meaning of life, love, and Spirit and how they relate with one another. And through these struggles, I have grown to know how to love completely, wholly, and without fear.

My Dearest, I give you my life, my heart and want you to know from the very depths of my soul that I am truly madly and deeply in love with you. In love with every part of you...the triumphs, the struggles. I understand you and know you from the inside out and shower you in unconditional love and light, wrapping you up and protecting you with my newly strong arms...holding you ever so close to me, warming you with the heat that is generated from the very beating of my heart...a heart that beats for you.

All of my love...David
