Late Night Conversation (and getting to really know each other)

Taylor and I frequently watch TV shows simultaneously. She from the house in Texas, me in Michigan. While we are by no means together physically, we are connected in many more and equally as important ways. We will call each other during the commercials and between shows. We will then talk for long periods after the show is over.

This is the time we discuss important events, little know facts about ourselves, or just the days events.

It was during one such discussion that I learned Taylor enjoys trains and has since about age 4. She has a fascination with them. This is another point we share. I, as a child, lived next door to the local ticker-tape / teletype operator for the rail system through our city. I was privileged to enjoy a few free rides on the local passenger train at the ripe old age of 8. Donny, the neighbor’s son, was about the same age. While he and I never had much of anything else in common, we did both enjoy the trains.

Last night, Taylor and I had a great discussion on the topic of cosmic relationships. I explained that I have felt we are all destined to find the one true love of our life. Whether we do so at an early age or later in life is not relevant. That we find that one love and nourish it, is the important factor.

I also told her, and believe truly, that God is in control and has a plan for each of us. However, it is our mission in life to realize what that plan is and act on it. I feel as though I have finally found that love and not going to let it pass me by.

Those who know us, also know I am in the process of packing. Yes, I am making the move to Texas where my true love awaits me.

I am quite sure we will watch shows together. I am relatively sure we will talk in between the shows. I am positive we will discuss all things from trains to cosmic relationships. May we never stop talking or being curious.

May each of you find your true love. ( Unless you already have, in which case I encourage you to keep working on reinforcing that love every day.) While we delve into the cosmic and the religious and every other aspect, may we be guided by the true love we share and project that to all we have contact with.

My wish for you is to be as happy and in love as I am.
