for the longest time... i thought that I had one of two choices:
That I was doomed to be in a series of bad relationships that seemed to get worse each time....
Or that I was destined to be alone.
And I was okay with that. Or that's what I kept telling myself. Shut up, go to school, move up north and get a house, a job, and leave it alone, you'll be fine.
My life veered offtrack this year, and it took a turn I definitely didn't expect... and you know something?
It was the best detour I ever took.
On that road, I met a man I am absolutely crazy about, who's brilliant and funny and romantic and loving and giving, and who loves me for me, and makes me feel beautiful and perfect, and for the first time in a LONG time, unafraid to face my future. Look at the new pictures I posted, esp the default-- can anyone fake a smile like that?
I know now, that I'll never be lonely again, and I thank God every day for putting that man into my life. He was an unlooked for blessing that turned my heart around and brought it out in me, making me feel again, making me live again, making me love again.
He's brought me out of myself, and he's making me realize that I could be so much more than I was allowing myself to be. And for that, and for so much more, I am blessed, and I am grateful.
