“I did want to be with this one. I really wanted to choose her. She was an exquisite woman, brilliant and funny and sexy. She could make my whole body laugh with her quick, sarcastic comments and my heart beat fast just looking at her turn over in bed. I loved her like crazy. Our young love created a whirlwind that clouded everything. We were happy. We genuinely were. Then cloud 9 brought us back to earth. I chose her less and less. Every day, for three years, I chose her a little less. I stayed with her. I just stopped choosing her. We both suffered for it. Choosing her would have meant focusing every day on the gifts she was bringing into my life that I could be grateful for: her laughter, beauty, spirit, playfulness, compassion, love, companionship, and so much more.”
