My sweet JJ,
What were we thinking? That we could take each other for granted, be stingy with softness, kindness, thoughtfulness, loving and that everything would be OK? We were so wrong. We forgot our own mantra about leaving things behind and of course, stuff just kept piling up, as it will if we allow it. Thank you for letting me in, for opening up to me, and thank you, thank you for your honesty. More things break without it than because of it. I can’t wait be with you, to live in the day to day. We both deserve this piece of happiness. —Frenchy
