reading this made me very happy for you. Things may be rough.. but you've got the right perspective.

Thanks, Veleda. :-)

Off-topic-at-hand: After your earlier post about why you have who you have on your LJ, I feel pretty honored to be part of that group. Thanks for that too.

Well met,
Miekke

I love you MLB.

There is nothing more you could do or say that could be further proof than that which you've already done.

I love you too.

I felt so great about what you two are doing...and like I said before, it is your forest to govern. (the but comes later) For you to recognise that growth is dependant upon individuality is a testiment to your love for one another. If one of you lovenly looks down upon the other, a shadow is created. Its not malicious...orhurtful. Its done with caring and adoration. However, the very action of that creates a shadow. And while its important to feel shade from that blinding sun,...one has to emerge and walk again on life's path. How wonderful of you two to meet, fall in love, partner and then take scary steps to walk alone, but hand in hand. How much truer can love become?
This is the but. I was totally ok until I read the Pooh bear and Piglet say goodbye to Eeyore. Damnit ..this keyboard...all fuzzy...shit.
I am honoured to have witnessed what it means for two people to love. And stay loved.

Wow - that's a really excellent way of conceptualizing it. Thank you for your thoughtful comment.

I am so struck by the courage and integrity you two have. What an incredibly hard thing, and what an incredibly brave thing.

I have complete faith that you will get where you need to go. And I admire that you show no urgency to force it.

I hardly know you and my world is a better place for having you in it.

May your journey be blessed and you receive exactly what you need every step of the way.

Thank you so much for the kind and supportive words! I can come back and read them during those frequent times my Inner Critic pipes up and berates me for having made the biggest dumb-ass decision on the planet. ;-p
