Valentine,
We are better than we were when we were young and beautiful . We are seasoned, and funnier now. What we lost in the hot tempers, and hateful words of our silly youth, we have found in the gentleness of knowing each other. The rivers of time have smoothed away some of our rough edges, and I am grateful for each day, but also each decade. The good , the bad, and the brutiful. I love you. Simple. I lean on you, and I believe in you. In my eyes you are capable of ANYTHING ! In this, the end of our second decade, I can honestly say that love only gets better. It becomes more honest, it cries easier, and it reveals itself as the only thing that matters.
