Yesterday was my 8 month anniversary with my boyfriend and like other important developments it's a day to day process. In that time frame, I've built for myself with him security and happiness.
When I say Security, I mean both the emotional and the physical kind. I have always been a emotionally fragile and physically self conscious. As the months have accumulated, he's been the one to pull me from drowning in my emotions, to tell me that I'm beautiful for no other reason than just because he thinks so. I think what I've always wanted in a relationship, I've gotten my first time around. Sometimes it scares me that my first shot at love make me feel complete.
. . . and then comes happiness. The happiness I get from being with my boyfriend could not be replicated from financial success or material gain. I guess being an emotional person and holding everything in my life under a microscope of feeling: I feel complete. I feel invincible. I feel safe. I feel loved. I never expect everyday to be a happy one, but even if I fight with him, I know it's just temporary; and even if it's just missing him, I can chalk up the day as a day fully lived.
No matter if we're just lying down, talking about news, making hilarious inside jokes, taking trips, or just in his car talking about the mundane: the clock of life is ticking, time well spent.
