T and me
I was watching the movie last night and admiring the way Paul, Julia’s husband, adored her and supported her. Someone asked me this past weekend if I could see spending the rest of my life with T and I said no doubt, that is what I am going to do. The same friend who asked me had told me that her measure of destiny was who did you want to sit down at the end of the day and have a glass of wine with.
I don’t think that is the measure.
How about someone who supports you? Who when I say I am giving up the blog, she says, “NO WAY!” because she actually reads my writing and is a fan. How about someone who wants to be a parent with you and shares one of your biggest desires? How about someone who knows how to care for you when you are having your 19th nervous breakdown?
I’d say the measure of who you want to spend the rest of your life with involves more than a glass of wine at the end of the day, it involves a vision of your life together in the crystal ball, it involves supporting and appreciating each other, and it most surely involves chemistry – that attraction that has no definition or reason.
The deal is this, it’s tough to write about the daily habit of love, but it is truly the greatest blessing a person could have in their life. And to all my single friends who wish for this companionship, I have a special wish for you that you find your T.
