I’ll tell you many things, but what I won’t tell you is what’s going through my mind when my racing thoughts keep me up at night, or how certain words are enough to send my stomach doing backflips.

You were the one I wasn’t expecting. You didn’t catch my eye like others do, instead you caught something more personal – you caught my heart.

It’s a strange feeling knowing that you’ve made a life-changing decision, and still actually waiting for your life to change.

Losing your job and security is terrifying, but uncertainty is also. It’s time to embrace it, to not only change my path, but to embrace the not knowing. To become comfortable with just walking ahead and facing whatever challenges come my way. 


I want to know if I can help you accomplish your dreams and reach your goals. I want to know if there’s a role for me in your life.

You don’t know what a beautiful person you are, how lucky people are to have someone as honest and challenging but caring and loving as you are in their lives. You don’t know how lucky I am.

Sometimes we just need a little help to see the beauty; to stand our ground; to see that there is every reason to fight.

I want a love which puts my world into order, which makes the dull and ordinary exciting, and which silences the musings of my heart.

I am always trying to keep you close enough that you don’t give up but far enough away that you can’t hurt me.
