Happy Birthday

You and I are connected in a way
that goes beyond romance,
beyond friendship,
beyond what we’ve ever had before.
It has defied time, distance,
and changes in ourselves and in our lives.
And it has defied every explanation
except one:
purely and simply, we’re soul mates.
I can’t explain it.
I just feel it.
It’s there in the way my spirit subtly lifts
whenever we talk,
how the sound of your voice
brings me home in a way I can’t explain.
It’s in the delight I feel
when we laugh at exactly at the same things.
When I’m with you,
it’s like a tiny part of the universe
shifts into the place it’s supposed to be,
and all is right with the world.

These things, and so many more,
have made me understand
that this is a once-in-a-lifetime,
forever connection
that could only exist between you and me.
And deep in my soul,
I know that our relationship is a rare gift,
one that will bring us
an extraordinary happiness
all through our lives.

I love you –
Happy Birthday

    You were so very blessed to marry a woman who loved you so much, and could express her love in words that only you could know, and feel how much they meant to you. Eight years, 9 months ago you were very lucky to get this card from Anita. You will always have these memories. God was watching over you both; He planned for your souls to touch each other deeply. Such love should be known by all the world!
