You're a fighter

Bryan is my boyfriend, for those who do not know. He is probably one of the most amazing men I've ever known, if not THE most amazing. Him and I have everything in common, it's almost scary. I'm just waiting for the day when we start to finish each other's sentences...I feel it coming. I could sit here and list all the qualities and traits about him that make me love him the way I do, but I'm not going to do that. It's too cliche and would take WAYYY too long. Instead, I'm going to tell you this one thing. JUST when I thought that I would never find the direction I should be headed in, I ended up on that path. I ended up on that path where you just KNOW you're going to be alright. You know that because you now have this person by your side, you are suddenly stronger than you ever thought you could be.

Now, I'm not saying I need him to be strong, or to know who I am. In fact, I believe quite the opposite. I believe that you have to know yourself, really have an understanding of yourself, to know where you're going and what you want. It should never depend on anyone but YOU. Bryan just....makes it easier for me to see the end result.

Let me say this. I still have a lot to learn about myself. Everyday, I'm learning more. Like today, I learned that it's OK to not know what you want to do with the rest of your life. I'm 22 years old, and I have no clue. Somedays, I want to be a teacher, other days, I want to continue in the field I'm in and just move up the corporate ladder. I can't decide. And that's ok. It's ok because no matter what I end up doing, I will be making myself happy. And without the help of anyone else. So what I'm trying to say is...Bryan compliments who I am. We fit. He makes me want to be a better person, and he makes me want to figure it all out. I am forever wondering and hoping and praying that I do the same for him. I will continue to strive, and hunger for the bigger picture. Baby steps are ok, but they only take you so far. I'm ready to run, full speed ahead to my dreams. I see this man in my future, and it excites me more than I can put into words.
