Dear Michael Z,
Even if life were perfect I still don't believe everyone would be entirely happy. It?s the imperfections in life and love that allow it to be so real. And the reality allows you to feel all of the things you're supposed to feel.
Throughout our relationship I've felt happiness, joy, silliness, excitement, lust, euphoria, love, worth, comfort, satisfaction, completion, sadness, anger, resentment, confusion, betrayal, heartbreak, disappointment, sacrifice and relief. If any one of those feelings were missing, none of them would have felt the same and everything would have been different.
Its funny because I found myself saying in earlier times, "I never would have defined you as the person I would have been looking for?"
And now I say, "There isn't anyone else I'd ever want.."
Our love plant is a great example. When it was new, it was lively and beautiful, full of bloom. As the time passed, the weather became cold, dark and rough at times. And just when you thought it had seen its last flower blossom, it came back to life. And bloomed once again, lively and as beautiful as when it was new. I always knew it would survive. Just like I know we will.
You see, we don't have just love. We aren't just a "couple". We are a unit. A pair, partners in the crime of love & life. I got your back, you got mine. And no matter what comes along, no matter how dark, and cold and rough it may get, we will always blossom. Because we love each other. Not with just the definition of the word, but with the definition of our hearts, our minds and souls.
We share more than "status". We share more than fun. We share our experiences, our mistakes and our regret. But we also share our love and passion and willingness to understand, our faith and belief, our morals and kindness and goodness and our forgiveness.
I doubt couples like Jack & Lavonne and Brenda & Dan have ALWAYS been perfect. But they knew nothing was bad enough to give up and be defeated. And I know, there isn't anything you and I can't get through with open minds and open communication.
For every good man, theres a good woman? and vice verse.. We are individually good, but together, we are great!
MZJR0607 can't exist without the MZ or the JR.
I love you Boo. My goals, plans and life have always included you. There was never a plan B. Only a plan Z. :)
Love,
Jamie
