right now i’m sitting at home in my bed and reflecting from the past two weeks that i got to spend with my amazing man. i honestly think i’m the luckiest girl in the world. i used to be one of those people that did not believe in long distance relationships. i feel like what you least you want in a relationship and what scares you the most .. you end up finding the perfect person but being with them you have to face your fears. being in a long distance relationship has made me stronger. it has taught me that love is not about how much affection you show someone, how much ” time ” you spend with someone. love is just pushing through the hardest things and making it the most beautiful. as hard as this time that i have away from joe, down the road i know that these times that i’ll charish forever. him going away for four months under way and waiting for a phone call and emails… it makes you realize just how important that person is to you, how much you really need them in your life.
sitting in my bed and thinking about the moments that i just had with joe.. all of my bones are aching and wishing that i could just got back to that final moment when i said goodbye to him early this morning for the next six months. but the more i wish and the more i cry it just makes me get sadder and sadder. but i know that God has this crazy ridiculous plan for our lives and somehow he brought this little texan-air force brat and this arizonian together.. i have nothing but faith that the Lord is going to work in our lives in the next six months to where its going to make us even stronger.
“contrary to what the cynics say, distance is not for the fearful, it is for the bold. It’s for those who are willing to spend a lot of time alone in exchange for a little time with the one they love. It’s for those knowing a good thing when they see it, even if they don’t see it nearly enough”
praying and trusting the Lord with you my sweet friend! phone date soon soon soon! <3
p.s. i still haven’t seen any comments on my bloggeroo! lol.
