Better Together

Sunset Beach. December 30, 2013.

Do you remember that day? I took this during our first date at the beach. This has always been my dream date. And you should know how happy I am to wake up one day knowing that it was a dream no more. And the best part? I got to spend that day with you. It was perfect. Just how I imagined it. But you know what? I realized that dream dates are nothing. Perfect dates are nothing. Really.


Because just you and you alone can make the most surreal dreams or even a perfect date a hundred times or maybe a thousand times better. Better than I could ever imagine, better than I could ever ask for. A warm feeling washes over me whenever I'm with you and this makes me cherish even our simplest talks, the walks we share (even if we do not know where we're going), and even those moments that we are actually doing nothing.

I love you, Jan. I don't often say this to you but I hope I didn't fail to show you or make you feel every day how much you mean to me. I will kiss you a thousand times a day and I will never get tired of it. I will hold your hand and even if it gets calloused, wrinkled or rough I will never let it go. And I will always be here for you, my Jan, my lab, no matter what.
