30 Letters in 30 days - Day 2: My Love

Jimmy,

I was really excited to see that I get to write a letter to you today!  I could write this letter forever and never fully convey all the things you mean to me...

Meeting you changed my life.  From the very first day we clicked and each day just gets better and better.  Every time my heart is bursting with love for you I think, "I can not possibly love anyone more than this."  And then I find myself falling more and more in love with you.  You are, without a doubt, THE love of my life.  I have never known anything like this and I can't imagine anything better than this.

Before I met you I felt as though there was this void in my life, this hole that could not be filled no matter how hard I (and others) tried.  I could never just be me with someone until I met you.  I put up so many walls and defenses but you just walked right through them and into my heart.  You have been so real and upfront about everything, allowing me to see the real you from the beginning with no gimmicks or facades.  You've kept every promise and never given me even the tiniest reason to doubt you or mistrust you.  You are the real deal and they just don't make them like you any more.  I have searched my entire life for someone who makes me feel the way that you make me feel and I am so glad I don't have to look anymore.  I have found everything I could ever dream of with you.

I am so happy to have fallen in love with my friend.  I love that we can be partners and lovers and friends - the whole package.  I love laughing and being silly with you.  We have more in common than most people would think given how we come from such different backgrounds.  We share a unique cool nerdiness that few can pull off.  And I can kick your ass in Lord of Rings Trivia!!!!

I miss you everyday.  You are never out of my thoughts and always in my heart.  I understand why you had to go, but it doesn't stop me from constantly wishing you were here.  I try not to worry too much, but I worry because I don't want to lose the best thing I've ever had.  I am so looking forward to making more memories with you.

Most of all I want to thank you for showing me what it means to really live.  I think a lot of people (I was one of them) go through life and they aren't really happy and they have no idea how to achieve happiness.  I certainly looked for it in a lot of places and tried so hard to make happiness happen.  You made being happy as easy as breathing.  You have thought me to be grateful for each moment and to appreciate the small things in life.  I now live in the moment and enjoy each and every moment because you are with me, no matter where you are.

I love you so very much.

- Charity
