happy birthday to him

a year ago i was feeling really lonely. and then, i was hugged for the first time in months by a new friend. and it changed my life.

that boy is now my best friend. we've had a lot of adventures together. we've laughed at the simple things and talked through the difficult ones. we've made to-do lists and crossed things off. he taught me to play guitar and i showed him what it meant to simply hang out. snowy walks and sunset hikes, children's books and classic movies...

i've never been happier than when i am with him.

and today is his birthday. and i really wish i could be there to see his face when he finds his birthday present. and i have never been happier and felt so good about a gift. and i know he will like it. and i know...that i love him.

there's that moment in life when you have to think about the hard things in the future, but since i have met him, the future has only been bright. there are so many things that will be so hard i know i might cry, but i know that it will be worth it.

i've learned so much from him. i know the future, like a baby rose, will only unfold into something even more perfect.

happy birthday seth.
