Patience is definitely a virtue. To be patient requires knowledge and strength. Not many can bear with waiting for too long. Our selfish instincts tend to kick in and take over, forcing us to make decisions based off momentary emotions, which isn’t always a good thing. If one can manage to remain adamant and strong throughout the bad, the reward at the end is truly very well worth it.
This entire month has been a roller coaster of emotions and experiences. Although I walked into it all well-knowing what awaited me, I do have to admit I faltered many times. I was not prepared entirely for what I had to endure, but I was able to pull through and keep my promise.
I can now remain next to the beautiful angel that was sent to me and support her throughout the whole way. She has finally agreed to take my hand and trust me. I have not needed to take Xanax for the past two days because we are finally with one another once more. She is slowly recovering, and it will definitely take a long time before she can gather herself entirely, but I now have the strength and patience I need to get her there.
There was a boundary between us from the start that I was not aware of, and once it was torn down, everything immediately made sense, and thanks to that we were able to push ourselves forward. This woman still remains very beautiful, genuine, honest, intelligent, funny, knowledgeable and as wonderful as she always has been. Once we get through this, she will flourish into something far more beautiful and stronger than she is now, and I truly cannot wait to see that day.
As long as she continues to hold my hand, continues to trust and believe me, we will surely continue moving forward. I have never loved and will probably never loved and devote myself to anyone like I have with this wonderful person, and I have to make sure she knows that forevermore.
Je t’aime, M.
