The Time is Ticking

Today is November 1, 2009. Can it really already be November? The time truly flies by as you get older and busier. It is November 2009. I don't think I can grasp onto the thought that something wonderful, amazing, and truly incredible is going to happen to me soon. Soon, meaning, in literally 10 days. Something I have been waiting for. Something that seemed too far away 2 years ago. Something that still doesn't seem real. Something I have missed and won't even realize how much until I the day it comes to life again. Something that was tearful and painful, even though I don't like to admit it sometimes. Something that was truly hard for me to let go. That something is the return and reuniting with my best friend and love, Beau Healey.
The happiest things make you the saddest. It was the hardest thing to see him leave with knowing I wouldn't see him for two years. It was a difficult adjustment to get used to life without him near me. I had to learn to live life without him physically with me even though he was in my thoughts and prayers constantly. 2 years is a very long time. I can say that so much has happened these last two years and it is hard to believe that Beau has been gone that long. It has been a very long time since I have seen him face to face. Since I looked into his eyes. Since I saw his smile. Since I heard his laugh. Since I have felt his arms embrace me. It is all sometimes hard to remember clearly. Separation does that. There is one thing I do know....the minute I see him again, everything about him and the way I feel about him will all come rushing back to me more clearly than ever.We have both grown and have walked our own paths, but we have never let each other go. Our friendship is too great. Our love and care for each other is too great. There is no way I could let him pass me by. I am still here for a reason and I am giving us a chance when he gets home. He is amazing and has not compared to any other guy who has crossed my path in these 2 years.
I like to think of scenarios of how it will be when we see each other again. Will we run to each other and hold on to each other as tight as we can. Will we cry? Will I have a huge smile on my face and just run to his arms? Will it be awkward? Or will I scream, laugh, and cry all at the same time? I don't know.
I don't know what to expect really. The future can only tell. I don't think I can imagine the way I am going to feel. It is too great. I will see my best friend again. I will know that it was all worth it because of the joy we will both experience. The joy that I am going to feel in the next week and a half is something I look forward to. It has been 2 years. This is a time I never thought would come so soon. I am more than ready to see Beau again. I guess we will find out what happens.

Beau and I

 

 

 

 

I loved being with Beau. He was my best friend. He was the one I would give my everday news. We went through a lot together and grew to know each other. We were with each other through the good and bad. We laughed our heads off. We were able to talk about serious things and have deep conversation. I was completely 100% around him, which includes being outrageously crazy and I knew he would still love me for me. I loved the way he laughed when he thought I was being ridiculous. I loved his thoughfulness and genuine care for me. I loved how he teased me. No matter what we would be doing, I was content and happy because I was with him.
