You stand upon the threshold. What do you see?

30 Days of Letter Writing: Letter Two

Mon cheri,

Brent, it has nearly been two years since we met and I cannot thank Audrey enough for introducing us. You are everything a women could ever want in a lover and friend. You have been supportive and true. You have been constant and unwavering; always, you have been beside me. You look after me, laugh at my whimsical ways, and nurture me. You know my heart, read my thoughts, and predict my words. Every time I talk to you, my feelings for you are reaffirmed. You make me smile and laugh. You warm my heart with your clever humor and insightful mind. Most importantly, you love and accept me.


I love you too. I'm not great at showing it, but I appreciate everything you do for me. I look forward to our future together. I am very lucky to have a man like you in my life! I tease you and act childishly; I may never mature but I do want to grow old with you.  When I look into your deep brown eyes, I see the rest of my life before me and that life is shared with you.

I need you. I have lost so much in the passed year but you consoled me. Whatever love and encouragement I lost when my father died, I regained from you. You have been so kind! Brent, you are the only man in my life now and my world would be empty without you. Who else could I be completely honest with but you? There are things I have told you which I will never tell anyone else. I trust you.  No one else can make me happy and reassure me as easily as you. Again, for that I love you.

Yours always,
Eden

Dear Katrina,

When I first met you I overlooked you. You were just another face in the classroom and I was oblivious to the wonderful friendship which you and I would forge together. However, Fortune smiled upon me when our journalism teacher moved you to the seat in front of me. That was when it all began! Now, three years later I realize you entered my life just when I needed a best friend the most.Consistently, you have proved your merit! I treasure your reliability, discretion, and wit! You are a brilliant and opinionated young woman. You can and will go far in this world--much, much farther than most--just remember to try and try again. Never sell yourself short. Oh, and stick to your plot lines! ;P



I want to accompany you through the hills and the valleys of your journey and  watch you achieve your dreams. If ever you should fail, if life should deter your efforts and knock you down, I plan to be there to commiserate and say, "Dust off your knees, rise, and try again!"

Katrina, life isn't always fair, but my world grew brighter the day we met. Know, always, that you are a cherished friend and companion.

Sincerely,
Eden
