I think I am exactly where I am supposed to be. It may not be where I want to end up, but I love it right now. I love having my best friend live across the street from me. I love knowing that no matter how bad my day is, within 5 minutes of him coming over, my stomach hurts from laughing. I love feeling independent and learning to support myself, yet still having the security and help from my parents. I love feeling like I can change the world, but knowing that I have the rest of my life to do it. I love feeling like every day I am on the edge of something amazing.
Last night I drove around with Michael, just talking. We
drove through town in the cold night, looking at Christmas lights and explaining the details of our lives. I shared with him things I've maybe never shared with anyone. It made me feel so safe and secure to be able to tell him things and get his honest opinions and thoughts on what I was saying. I am very blessed to have someone in my life like Michael. I can share anything with him, and he never judges me or tries to skew my opinions or thoughts. He just listens, and is there for me. He may be the first person who is non family that truly cares about the things I say, and respects me without question. I care so much for him. Which explains why I am sitting at my kitchen table in pj's at 10:30pm, going on my third cup of coffee, helping him write a 10 page paper, even though its due tomorrow and he is on page 2.
I wouldn't change this for the world. I am happy.
