Day 2 - Your Crush
"He’s not perfect. You aren’t either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn’t going to quote poetry, he’s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don’t hurt him, don’t change him, and don’t expect for more than he can give. Don’t analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him when he’s not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don’t exist, but there’s always one guy that is perfect for you." – Bob Marley
Dear Future Crush,
I have put my thoughts of finding you on hold for a while, not because I do not look forward to your company, but because I would like to focus on being the woman you deserve. I have had a rough go of things these past few years, many ups and downs. But there is no time like the present to take time out and focus on your own wellbeing and happiness. I strive to love myself unconditionally and without falter before even considering your presence in my life.
You may already be in my life, supporting and listening as need be or you may be out there waiting and seeking for me. I know your love will be true and that you will be more magnificent then even my own imagination could ever conjure up.
I am incredibly flawed but in a perfect manor, one that only you would understand. Splendidly passionate about everything that life has to offer. I strive for knowledge and push myself to succeed. I am nowhere near perfect and I never will be. Perfection is unachievable but someone that is over their past heartaches and all of the past misfortunes… That is what you deserve. Working through this is my focus now. I know that you will understand.
One day we will rejoice, laughing and relishing in our memories. I look forward to the many joyous occasions that I am sure are to come. Until then, here is to your patience and your understanding. Here is to you my future crush. I look forward to experiencing what life has to offer with you standing by my side. I look forward to growing and learning all that the world has to offer us. Here is to you my darling. Here is to you.
Love,
Samantha
