A Letter To My Heart

Dear Friend,

It’s funny how at first when we met I wasn’t sure I would like you at all. Not because you weren’t a wonderful person, not because you didn’t make me smile, and certainly not because you weren’t a beauty to behold, it was because you were just too damn perky and at the time I met you I wasn’t happy so I didn’t see the amazing person that I see now.

Since I’ve known you, you have brought joy into my life. The love that you show me, the care that you give me, the constant and consistent real love you have for me has brought me through so many dark moments in my life.
You are my spiritual connection and through you I am stronger than ever. You encouraged me to go back to school and wouldn’t let up until I did. Once I started you cheered me on and always told me how proud you were of me.

I know that your past life was different than your present. You went through what most of us go through before finding ourselves. Let me tell you this, who you are now and who you are becoming, is amazement to GOD in all of his splendor. You are a walking testament to what beauty, love, compassion, support, and strength means.
As you accomplish more in your life you do not forget those that love you. No matter what issues drop at your feet, you still walk tall and you always smile. That is the most amazing thing about you. Even when you are at your saddest or lowest point, you smile. That is pure joy and love. You live what you speak and that means far more than most.

You make people want more in life just by standing near you. You make people want to live better just by knowing you. You make people want to love stronger because of how you love. I never forget and will never forget or take for granted the perfect gift GOD has given me. You are enough to make me feel like I’ve accomplished everything I needed to in this lifetime.

-Love, Gregory J. Upson-Watkins
