310 miles
310 is the magic number. It seems like a sad and far number compared to our previous 10.8. But I guess that's what we get for complaining about 10.8. So now, I won't complain about 310, because it is far better than 3,100.
That doesn't change the fact that 310 is hard. Being away from you is really hard. I constantly miss you. I crave your presence, I dream of your touch. I miss snuggling and our movie nights. However, I have learned to appreciate and love our skype movie nights. I treasure facetiming and phone calls. And I am so thankful to feel emotionally close even though physically we are quite far.
The distance has done us well though, and God has a plan. We've both matured and improved ourselves for each other. For me personally, I feel like I have grown a stronger appreciation for you and my love for you has become stronger. I needed to expand my perspective from zooming in on you for so many years to widening it and observing the rest of world. By doing this, I have noticed how our of this wide, big picture of the world and all those in it, you still stand out...almost as if I was still zoomed in on you. You're all I think about and my biggest desire.
I'm grateful God has a plan, and I'm grateful He is doing his plan despite what we've been saying, worrying, and complaining about. All will be well. I hope one day the distance between us at night will be just a few inches.
I'll see you soon baby.
