You are love

There are different ways to interpret life, black and white or grey, most of my life, I was a black and white kinda girl.  I didn't see much grey, it was one or the other, no room for much else.  I kept being told through this past year that there is so much more, to read between the lines, not everything is so easily black or white.  I argued, I always argued because that is how I was raised.  Yes, I was raised to both argue and see things in only B/W (hence the need to argue).

You taught me that what I thought I knew, wasn't always the case.  You showed me that I needed to look at things differently, not through rose colored glasses but with eyes and mind open.   You taught me that life isn't always black and white, sometimes there is grey and if we're lucky, lots of color.  Through this, I was able to open my mind and my heart to the beauty that is a prism of spectacular color dancing within my soul.

You showed me love, not the conventional love that we read about in fairy tales yet a love so deep that once accepted, can change your world.  You did just that, you changed my world by loving me purely and unconditionally.   You allowed me the space I needed to grow and learn love, your love taught me to love myself.

I have such a deep respect for you, your heart is like no other.  You are love.
