It's been a year since I've been here. My life may not have been interrupted but my blogs sure have!!! It's crazy how fast time flies by. This last year was one of the best years of my life and it came on the heels of my worst one. In the summer of 2008, I lost my father and my 19-year marriage. One week after my last post, I ended up in the ER suffering from a nervous breakdown. The week after that, I showed up on the doorstep of an old friend and for the next 10 months he held me. He held me until I was strong enough to continue on. He gave me a soft place to land, a safe place to rest and a sweet place to recover. I fell in love with him. I fell in love with him the minute he opened his door on a chilly, October night almost a year ago.
My daddy is the one who taught me how to dream but this man was the one who made me realize that my dreams - the dreams I hold deep inside me - would all come true because he was a part of one of the biggest dreams I had. As a hopeless romantic, I believed that a true, pure love was possible and he gave that to me. He gave me a lot and because of that I'm here tonight and ready for what this next year holds for me. For that, and so much more, I want to tell him thank you!
We all have special people who come along that impact our journeys forever, he was one of mine. Tonight, as I am writing this, I am wondering who you'll be thinking about. Who was one of the people who was or is a part of your life that made you feel like every dream you'd ever had would someday come true?
If you have a minute, please share your story with us. . .
