Lone Survivor of the Alps: "To love would be an awfully big adventure.”

Tuesday, October 11, 2011

A spouse, a partner, a friend, and a lover to:

share ideas with and discuss current events
to go on bike rides with
to scrimp and save with
to change the world with
to see the marvels of the world with, but also help me remember the drops of oil on the spoon
to tell me when I'm wrong and accept my apologies
to share my dreams and aspirations with
to tell me its all going to be alright after I've had a bad day
to watch our kids open presents on Christmas morning with, after staying up all night putting them together
to go camping with and watch the stars
get lost on road trips
to achieve our goals with
to watch movies with
to succeed with
and fail with
to be my partner
to be my best friend
take long talks with and lose track of time
to inspire me to be better than I thought I could be
to inspire
to share the rest of my life
to share myself
to travel the world with (China, Italy, France, Australia, Africa, Mexico...)
to grow old with
to ride a train to the tip of Maine and be the first people to watch the sunrise over America
to have an eternal family with
to buy our dream house with and fill it with children and pictures and books
to adopt with
be honest
to respect
that loves me
I'm in love with.

Is that too much to ask? I hope not...

(PS - I borrowed the title quote from Michal. Isn't it great?)
