Love :)
Happy 5 Year Anniversary to me and my boyfriend, Kyle! :)
I can't believe it's already 5 YEARS, what the heck?! Through all of the good times and tough times, we were able to get through it all together and everything definitely made us stronger as a couple. I love you baby! :)
Look at our first picture together!
And this is us now :)
Here is something that Kyle wrote during the first year we started dating, and I've kept it ever since. :) He's an amazing writer and his view on love is truly on point.
Falling in love is an indescribable experience. The precious moments before, during, and even loves aftermath leaves lasting impressions on our souls. Unfortunately, too many of us focus on the sorrowful heartbreaks when we say goodbye to our loves. We forget the walks on the beach, the phone calls just to say hello, and the kisses on the cheek just to say I love you. We forget that they were the ones that held our hands as we journey through our life, absorbing life at its best and worst. The journey is so much more important than the destination. Whether or not that journey comes to an end is just one moment in our lives that pale in comparison to the hundreds we shared with our special someone. Fact of the matter is, love does not come to an end. As we look back in our personal timeline, those moments we shared are moments when we felt loves tender embrace, when actions spoke louder than words, when there were no awkward silences. We look back and see that we were so willing to put ourselves in the most vulnerable position and not fear the outcome. Our faith drove us. Our hearts drove us. Our hearts DRIVE us.
What many people often fail to comprehend that love is not just a feeling expressed outwardly towards another person, but that love must first exist within us to reciprocate to someone else. It is necessary to understand and feel that we are worth the love that we give and share; that we love who we see, looking past the exterior, delving deeper into our inner being.
We are then able to see that love does not come to an end. It exists within us waiting for that heartfelt smile. Yes, we walk away from lost loves hurt that they no longer love us the way we want them to, but we must appreciate the fact that during the moments of togetherness, we were in love. As much as we want to hate them, want to rid their memories from our minds, they exist in memories as reminders that we are capable of love. We carry within us the ability to make others smile, but more importantly, to make ourselves smile."
