2 Years Later
Excerpt from a blog written in June 2010:
For purposes of not speaking at all too soon, I will not say that this puppy dog relationship will surely get through anything. I will also not say that I have completely thrown away my beliefs about long distance relationships, because, to be very honest, I haven’t. Why else would I be scared, right? Fortunately, what I’ve discovered in this process of love and loving is that being scared is okay. When you have to jump off a cliff, there is no way you can truthfully say that you’re not absolutely butt crazy scared out of your pants, because you most certainly are. All I know for sure is that the love I have can smack that scaredy cat inside me and give me superman bravery and strength enough to jump in for the ride of my life.
Thankfully, I do not have to jump alone.
“You jump, I jump. Remember?” Rose said.
Spoken like a true star crossed lover.
I’m ready to say goodbye now. Although we both know, it’s not really goodbye. It’s just another opportunity to say “hello” again.
Here’s to not falling flat on our faces!

It seems so long ago when I took to writing in that moment of sadness and being afraid. Yet I can’t believe almost 2 years have passed! I still don’t want to speak too soon, but this long distance thing is slowly proving itself to me. Though I am admittedly still scared out of my pants, I welcome each and every opportunity we get to say “hello” to each other, whether it be through the computer or after 8 long months apart.
It really wasn’t goodbye after all!
