A little love note...

                                                                                                                              

Dear Brian,                                                                                                                February 14, 2012

There are so many things I am grateful for in who you are and who we are together. You give me a sense of security, love, and joy that is unmatched. You love and honor me in a way that isn't just words. It's deeper than that, truer than that. Your love for me gives me hope and assures me that there is purpose in this crazy life.

It's funny how life twists and turns and shows us ways to be.  I am so very grateful that our journey came together and we can celebrate true, real, limitless love on this day of love. I can't imagine my life without you. Thank you for loving me fully and completely.

I keep going back to our wedding and the words we shared that day. From "Here Comes the Sun" to "The Way I Am"...our vows and the readings...but really, it's e.e. cummings who nailed it for us. He gets that our hearts are truly connected and that we are one.

i carry your heart

i carry your heart with me (i carry it in

my heart) i am never without it (anywhere

i go you go, my dear;and whatever is done

by only me is your doing, my darling)

i fear

no fate (for you are my fate,my sweet) i want

no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true)

and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant

and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows

(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud

and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows

higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)

and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)

                                                                         --e.e. cummings

I love you, my heart, my true. Forever and always,

Kari
