It's funny, the way things happen sometimes. How things wind up not how you expected, but you are delighted by the end result. Someone told me the other day, when asked about a new relationship that she had been hoping for for years: He makes me happy. And it immediately made me smile, because feeling that way and being that content, means the relationship is exactly what it needs to be.
It means that being together is not a struggle. It means being completely honest is not terrifying. It means having someone listen to you and listening to them in return allows you both to understand each other, even if you don't agree. It means that being together is easy, and being by yourself is ok too. It means not having to be anything other than exactly who you are. It means living in the moment without pressure of the future, is a delight.
Because having someone make you happy is a gift. And it's an honor to make someone feel the same in return.
This is the life.
