I am writing this after a perfect London day. Lunch with my love, afternoon at a gallery followed by drinks & dinner on the Thames. I don't think Shannon or I could ask for anything more. As we walked home, hand in hand, we stopped to admire the beauty and just how very fortunate we are!
Now, I do not pretend that the destinations that we have been so fortunate to travel/live are amazing BUT, we get to do things that we were merely dreaming of just a few short weeks ago ... a nightly stroll, drinks, dinner, bad television and even better ... good television lol! I am just so happy, I think my heart may be at max capacity because I finally get to be with my love. Best of all, there is no dreaded date upon which one of us has to get on a plane and hope that we see one another soon. Knowing that we just get to be together .... uh ... no words can ever express the pure joy ... and yes you read that correctly NO WORDS HAHAHA.
On a tangent, I was reminded today why I love children and the arts. At the gallery I was at, a few children (probably 12) were filling out a questionnaire from the education department. The three of them were arguing back and forth over whose interpretation was correct. I politely asked what they were doing and they excitedly told me about the questionnaire. Quickly, they began to argue over who was right and I told them that either could be correct. Each viewer sees for themselves what is there and showed them how I could see both of their perspectives. They got so excited, giggled and ran about to finish. The pure excitement on their faces and the interaction with the art made me long for when I can be doing that, for real! Makes me smile as I write this hehehe! I hope this entry finds you all well!!!
One last thing, laughing. We have laughed so hard and so much now. I love how he can make me laugh so effortlessly and I know that I can always get him to giggle. I usually don't mean to either, it just happens ahahaha! That is all!
I am signing off and heading to bed, happy as I could ever hope for!!
Cheers,
Kate
