OK so I've been away...

So I haven't written for a God awful long time. I've been busy. Rollercoaster ride through life and all that y'know... I promise to TRY to make time to write more.

Gift Of Special Kisses

I got this many many months ago...

J's KiSS 500mg
Take 1 kiss orally 3 times a day, when needed.
Tale after food (or anytime you feel like a kiss).
Do not take more than 6 in 24 hours.
Finish the prescription unless otherwise directed by Prescriber.
Keep away from children.
Caution: May contain love, eat with caution

She gave that to me for our 3 month together. It's sitting on my table at work, and I'm looking at it, rereading it. It's almost empty now. Most of the Hershey's Kisses have gone into my tummy.

It's been almost a year since we got together. In many ways, it has been a very rough year. We haven't had an easy time. We've had to learn to mesh, despite our very different personalities.

Just a few days ago, we were talking about how we've changed over the last year.

It's incredible. Sometimes, I'm so focussed on the future that I lose sight of the past. I forget to look back and say, it's been a journey well travelled, good job. I forget to count our little achievements and to celebrate our little successes. So caught up in now and today, so engrossed in tomorrow, that I forget about yesterday.

I'm glad that I am where I am, and even though sometimes I wish for the freedom I gave up together with my singlehood, in my heart of hearts I know I love her.
