 
Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can 
completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you’ve 
never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and 
actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the future, dreams that 
will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many 
disappointments life has thrown at you. When something wonderful 
happens, you can’t wait to tell them about it, knowing they will share 
in your excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you when you 
are hurting or laugh with you when you make a fool of yourself. Never do
 they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you are not good enough, 
but rather they build you up and show you the things about yourself that
 make you special and even beautiful. There is never any pressure, 
jealousy or competition but only a quiet calmness when they are around. 
You can be yourself and not worry about what they will think of you 
because they love you for who you are. The things that seem 
insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become 
invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. 
Memories of your childhood come back and are so clear and vivid it’s 
like being young again. Colours seem brighter and more brilliant. 
Laughter seems part of daily life where before it was infrequent or 
didn’t exist at all. A phone call or two during the day helps to get you
 through a long day’s work and always brings a smile to your face. In 
their presence, there’s no need for continuous conversation, but you 
find you’re quite content in just having them nearby. Things that never 
interested you before become fascinating because you know they are 
important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this 
person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple things bring 
them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on 
the horizon. You open your heart knowing that there’s a chance it may be
 broken one day and in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy
 that you never dreamed possible. You find that being vulnerable is the 
only way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure that’s so real it 
scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend and 
possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems 
completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and 
security is in knowing that they are a part of your life.
