Often the people who always appear happy on the outside are the ones secretly hurting on the inside...a pain impossible to explain, a loneliness felt no matter how many people are in the room. If you find someone who can not only make you laugh, but make you smile on the inside, someone with whom you feel safe, at peace and accepted regardless of the turmoil surrounding you, you have found someone special...a true gift from God. Love is not just romance or absence of loneliness, but something you inherently know without words to describe it, a constancy of intimate friendship, respect, and appreciation. It's a shame that we may have to experience pain, loss, disappointment and regret from past relationships, but it all becomes worth it once we meet someone worthy of our heart and trust. My experience makes me wise enough to know what I have found, grateful enough to appreciate it, and strong enough to protect it.
