I Love You But...

It takes more than fate

Everyone falls in love in different ways and at different paces.

In my experience, the timing has never been right. People would tell me "it's just bad timing" and I hated that. I was tired of things not working out in my favor and I always doubted God and found myself asking him "why" instead of saying,

"I'm not sure what's going on but I have to believe that you have better things in store for me and that I need to trust in you"

As I began to accept and pursue God's plan for me, he brought me somewhere I never would've imagined. I ust to be a believer in 'signs' or maybe for a better word 'fate'. Like meeting someone for instance.

Don't get me wrong, I'm still a believer in fate, but sometimes it takes more than just fate. That's where I think God comes in and has been coming into my life lately.

So today.

Today fate has brought someone back into my life, but as God has taught me, it takes a hell of a lot more than just fate for things to work out. But even then, things might not work out.

What I've come to realize is that sometimes no matter how hard you try to make things work that if it's not meant to be and if it doesn't help you grow closer to God, then it won't work. No matter if you love them or whatnot. That's one of the hardest thing, I think is, to have the strength to walk away from someone you love but know isn't the right one for you.

So slow down.

Enjoy life and all the little moments because God is there in those moments.

He's got you.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
