the greatest emotion anyone can possess is love. love overpowers any and every other emotion known to man. love makes people crazy. love makes people smarter. love makes people dumber.
it's an odd thing, really. the fact one single emotion can make you do so many odd things you wouldn't normally do.
once you find someone you truly love, you never want to let them go. you want to spend every moment with them.
if you really love someone, you'll know. you'll miss them, even if they're just gone for 30 seconds. you'll want them to never leave. you won't be able to get over them. you'll believe they're your soulmate.
you'll overlook any flaws they have, because you'll see them as perfect. you'll cherish every time you hug them.
you'll want to do everything with them.
you'll have playful banter.
you'll fight, but at the end of the day you will
realize that you can't live without them and you will apologize.
they'll apologize first, though.
because no matter how much you love them, they love you equally.
some days you'll just want to lay in bed with them until the end of time.
but then they'll bring you back to reality and tell you they need to go to work.
you'll tell them you love them, and they'll say it back.
some days you'll spend alone, thinking about them and thinking how lucky you are.
they'll occasionally ask you if you'd like to accompany them while bird watching.
that is, if you're in love with stanley uris.
you'll say yes, because there's nothing else in the world you'd rather do than spend time with him.
you'll sit there in silence, admiring everything about it.
it's peaceful silence. it reminds you of how it all began.
thank you for everything. may we have many more years of love to share.
happy anniversary from when we started dating freshmen year.
love,
yours truly.
