    We met around 4 years ago.  He was so nice, so sweet, and so friendly. He stood out in the crowd without any effort.  His eyes sparkled like the stars in the sky whenever we looked at each other.  He was quickly capturing and taming my unknowing heart right before my eyes.

    His friendship taught me patience, kindness, and love for all. I can still hear him saying to always follow the rainbows, butterflies, and bunnies.  He was quickly melting away the shield that I had built around my heart.  He was opening my eyes up to something so magical to a love that I had always thought was there, but just never knew how to find it.

    Each day I spent as his friend, I yearned for more.  I was silly with needing and wanting his attention.  At no point before in my life had anyone ever connected with or brought out in me the person who I knew I could always be.  I saw who and where I was, and who I desired to be, in his eyes.  It was at that point that I could look in the mirror, and be in love with myself.  A feeling that connected me to eternal happiness.

    I walked on the clouds every time I thought of him.  My heart was light as a feather, and wanted to fly in the sky when I was around him.  My smile started to last longer and longer, even when he was not there.  My heart was set; I knew that I could and that I would love him for the rest of my life.

     It is when I learned about loyalty, from a bond so close, that no matter who came into the circle, there had to be a willingness to understand, to respect, and to have more patience.  It was a growth stage in my life, I learned how to appreciate events and circumstances way beyond anything that had anything to do with me.  It was a struggle for me at times, but because it felt so right, that I knew my struggle was something that I had to tend to in myself, and that no other was going to do it for me.  Here came the point in my life where I could make the choice, be selfish, and ruin any chance I had, or be loving and patient, be willing to rise above, and no matter what the circumstance, if I could find harmony within, and make each day on my own a day to love, that no matter what, I would be eternally happy, with or without him.  It was one of the hardest lessons, and yet it was one of the most appreciated lessons I have ever been through.  It taught me an even greater level of love, one so deep, that I could finally resign from holding within anymore fear.  I felt like a child all over again, ready to play and frolic in this beautiful world we live in.
