I am in love. I have been for 37 years. He is my soulmate and my best friend. How did I become so lucky to have someone care for me and love me unconditionally. Life can be simple at times, I am the lucky one, I am in love.

The right person will be as happy with a ring-pop as with a diamond, if it meant they have you. Would rather have your hand in theirs than anything from Tiffany's. The right person would spend one day and night with you, than a hundred others with the wrong person. The right person would see…

Living by the sea was always a dream of mine. I moved from the Greensboro, NC area to CB area 4 years ago. Im so grateful.Theres something about it that soothes my soul. I love how the salt air makes me feel and the way theres a constant lil breeze...it feels like magic flowing all…

I’ll never forget 6-2-17. It had to be the universe that brought us to the same place at the same time that night. When you looked at me and I looked at you and we found home in each other’s eyes. How easy it was to fall in love with you. Now 5000 miles away,…

To say my life is a series of after school specials is an understatement. From being adopted, to being abused,to loving a baby after being raped and so much in between. There isn’t enough lines to describe my mere 44 years. This letter is a letter to my future self. The self that can look…

You were my first love at 14. We may have only spent a year together before you broke my heart. I know you have to learn to love yourself before you can love another. We sustained our friendship until you graduated high school first. Oh, how I wished you would’ve talked to me instead of…

College- a time of change, independence and wonderment; however, for me, it was a time of confusion, self doubt and feeling like a failure. That’s when I met you. You made me feel whole, beautiful and loved. A feeling I never knew and something that scared me. I left you without explanation. Here we are,…

It is a struggle to face every day. Every day takes so much energy out of me, doing what I love. Do I even love it anymore, I ask? But I know nothing else. What I love is seeing you there. And I beat myself up at the thought of wanting to leave. Not because…

Manny the strongest person I know, All of my life I prayed for a happy life, a good life, without realizing all my prayers were answered the day I meet you. I never truly knew how much pain hides behind a smile, until the day I watched you tell me the story of your life.…

I truly believe that our dreams should come true and that everything that happens to us has a purpose.I have been reading Nicolas Spark’s books since I was 12. The “The Notebook” impressed me till so much and it reminded me the story of my family. A year ago, when Nicolas visited Russia, I found…
