Distance

For the most part, I think I’ve been handling this long distance relatively well.  Not to say I enjoy the distance, but luckily my life here is pretty filled to the brim, where I often find myself having to carve out time just for myself and recharge my batteries.  But this weekend, I just really missed B. I just wanted to have a day in on the couch with him  Or go for a swim.  Go for a walk. Make some dinner together. Watch a movie.  Do couple things.  Is that too much to ask?

I just felt a moment of sadness wash over me.  Even though we are constantly chatting, sharing pictures of where we are and what we are doing, it’s just not the same.  He sent me a picture of himself walking down the street, I couldn’t help but smile.  The love I felt for him filled me up from head to toe right then and there, but alas it is all just so bittersweet.  But I can do this.  And I will.  Because this is just temporary, right?  The day we can combine our lives will be here soon enough.  In the meantime, carry on living my life here to the fullest until our paths are one and a new adventure begins.
