"Don't change. Don't you ever change.", he said as he wrapped me up in his arms.
"This is who I am.", I promised the sweet man who calls me his own.
I should have explained that I am different now than I once was.
I am different now than I was even 6 months ago. I am better, stronger, more beautiful.
I am filled with love and faith and belief.
If that doesn't bring the beauty out in someone, I don't know what will.
Make up can only hide so much and enhance so much.
The girl he is loving is the girl I was always meant to be.
I first found her in my heart & then I recognized her again in his eyes.
Who would have thought?
Eyes I first met 10 years ago...
eyes I never imagined loving or getting lost in.
Life is funny and gorgeous.
The truth is, I will continue to grow and change, as will he.
But if we have it our way, we'll grow together...
in love & faith & belief.

one of the best things about being in the right relationship is when you change in ways that complement each other. We've each changed a lot since we met 16 years ago, but luckily the ways we have changed have been very compatible! Yay for you!
