Believe. My favorite word in whole entire universe. Why? Because when you believe, all things are possible. I believe in Christ first and foremost and the power of his love and the miraculous works He is capable of doing. I trust and believe each and everyday that He will lead, guide, and direct me in the right way. I also thank Him for bringing into my life one of the most important, the most AMAZING, the most wonderful man into my life…Aaron.

Being here has definitely been one of the hardest parts. Although we’re used to spending time apart, it’s still hard, because you eventually get to that point where you want to finally have that time you spend together always! not just for a day, a few days, or a weekend…but to be able to be together when you want to, at all/any time. I used to think that was a pain…but know I realize I’m grateful for all the time we’ve been able to spend together whether it be a few hours or a few days. Because each time is special and each time leaves me looking forward to the next time we’ll see each other.

As much as I’d love for him to be here to partake in this experience with me, I realize that we both have our own dreams we want to pursue. I see this time apart as a time for us to focus on our likes, our dreams, our goals…what it is we want out of life, things we want to accomplish. Being apart definitely allows you do that, because you really have no choice. It’s a time for self-exploration and self-discovery. And when you have someone who supports your goals and dreams and drives you to do better and be a better person even if it means sacrificing time together…that’s true love. Because true love withstands and overpowers any distance that separates two people… That’s him and that’s me.

But regardless of how much time I spend focused on me..he’s always on my mind and I’m always thinking about him. Because he is a part of my life and my future. So even when we’re physically apart, we’re emotionally and spiritually together…that’s what happens when you’re in love and when you make the decision to share your heart with someone. You surrender to the will of love and let it take it’s course…and of course, all you can do it love. trust. pray. and Believe.
