Despite my life being an open book on FB, Ive always felt meh on professing my love for Jon over the internet for whatever reason. Today Jon is 30 years old and I am just filled to the brim with love and gratitude for him-so much so that I want to vomit a little bit as I type this. As recent as a few months ago- I was blissfully unaware that my love for him could grow, because I was immensely happy and confident in our relationship- I was also super grateful that our biggest and most deep rooted issue was the lack of cleaning and chores around the house. I am so thankful that my norm-the life I model for my child, is with a life partner is one who encourages me, respects me, is impressed by me and loves me not despite of my character defects but because of them. His biggest priority other than his own happiness is helping to cultivate mine- and that right there has been our biggest blessing as individuals, a couple, and as a family. Happy 30th Birthday to my spirit feather- partner in crime and Happy Birthing Day to my Mother in Law and Father in Law. Jon- I wish you all the happiness in the world- you are BEYOND successful, I am so proud of you and so appreciative of all the joy you help bring to my life and to Jamesons...you are an AMAZING father, friend and human being. You call bugs buddy and tell them that itll be ok as you gently throw them out the door and into the bushes. I mean... WINNING!!!!! I love you so much but I like you even more. We cultivate love when we allow our most vulnerable and powerful selves to be deeply seen and known, and when we honor the spiritual connection that grows from that offering with trust, respect, kindness and affection. Love is not something we give or get; it is something that we nurture and grow, a connection that can only be cultivated between two people when it exists within each one of them – we can only love others as much as we love ourselves. Shame, blame, disrespect, betrayal, and the withholding of affection damage the roots from which love grows. Love can only survive these injuries if they are acknowledged, healed and rare.
