My best friend.

Thinking solely for distraction's sake will leave you blind and cause distraction. However, if you motivate yourself to concentrate on all else surrounding, you will find yourself hopelessly devoured by the possibilities. There is so much more in the world than each other, but the greatest gift comes in the ability to exist with one another; allowing each other to experience their own situations. Count on the fact that I will be back to tell you everything each time that you're not there.

We both have separate lives that have become intertwined; two separate threads woven together. If one of us is snagged, it will cause the other to pucker, but if only one becomes stretched it may only cause a bend in the fabric.

Something unique in all this is that it wasn't mere chance. I had to trust myself enough; I had to trust God enough that he was really allowing the situation, even motivating it. It's not simple, but it isn't complicated either.

I've found myself helplessly involved.

The best part is that I was able to develop an attraction that grew into finding the best friend that I could ever have. More excitement and understanding comes out of being with him, than any other person I could be around. (This isn't to say that all other relationships aren't important... because they most certainly are!) But all else fades, sometimes. We have a way of making each other laugh that most people would find hideously disgusting. In more ways than one, I find myself questioning how we hadn't met sooner. It was all about when we needed to find each other. It'd be too simple to call us soulmates, because that term only touches on a portion of how we're meant for each other.

And. . . if it weren't obvious already . . . I love you.
