Love Letter

Have you ever watched a movie or read a book and words just flowed beautifully? From time to time, I want to showcase (& research on my side) some love letters of the greats and some of the ordinary and expected (like the one I'm posting tonight). Love letters have such a significance in my life, since I was in middle school up to now. So my friends, instead of the fast & non existent posts I've been giving you, when I don't have the time to write out a fantastic post, you'll get a love letter! Oh I know you're devastated! Who knows, this even may be fun! 


So tonight, my love letter comes from the movie & book "Message in a Bottle". As my mom and I were sitting here watching it, I got so inspired. So here it is. The first love letter of many to come. 


Dear Catherine,
I'm sorry I haven 't talked to you in so long. I feel I've been lost...no bearings, no compass. I kept crashing into things, a little crazy, I guess. I've never been lost before. You were my true north. I could always steer for home when you were my home. Forgive me for being so angry when you left. I still think some mistake's been made...and I'm waiting for God to take it back. But I'm doing better now. The work helps me. Most of all, you help me. You came into my dream last night with that smile...that always held me like a lover...rocked me like a child. All I remember from the dream...is a feeling of peace. I woke up with that feeling...and tried to keep it alive as long as I could. I'm writing to tell you that I'm on a journey toward that peace. And to tell you l'm sorry about so many things. I'm sorry I didn 't take better care of you so you never spent a minute being cold or scared or sick. I'm sorry I didn't try harder to find the words to tell you what I was feeling. I'm sorry I never fixed the screen door. I fixed it now. I'm sorry I ever fought with you. I'm sorry I didn't apologize more. I was too proud. I'm sorry I didn't bring you more compliments on everything you wore and every way you fixed your hair. I'm sorry I didn't hold on to you with so much strength that even God couldn't pull you away. 
All my love,
G


Beautiful! 
Last night, Justin and I had a wonderful date! We indulged in one of our most favorite pastimes, Mexican! After a delish dinner, we then went to the movies to see "The Green Hornet" which surprised me. Much funnier than I expected! We were so over due and I'm so happy things are back to normal.

Don't forget: 2 more days! Until the giveaway will end! So get to commenting by going here! You won't want to miss out!


With all of my love ;)

Amy
