Love Letter 15

I loved talking to you late last night through the wonders of the electronic highway. It reminded me of how steady and alive I feel in your presence. You are an astonishingly beautiful woman. What makes you so? You’re pretty to be sure – a knock out really, but I think it is the heart that looks out to see where it can love the best. Oh my God. I’m crazy about you and as each of the months pass by my love deepens. It deepens because you keep touching that place in me that longs to soar – consistently, insightfully, you take what’s ramming around in my head and paint a picture of my unique gifts doing what they must do in the world. It doesn’t seem to bother you that I falter, and withdraw, that my heart shuts down when I get afraid. (It must, you’re too wise not to be concerned.) No, instead each time we talk, each time you manage to pump a little life into my imagination, I feel alive again. You do that for me and then you turn your attention, (and I haven’t miss the fact that when something gets your attention it happens), to the next thing that will change someone’s life. I feel so lucky, and if I sit with that feeling I feel so ecstatically happy to call you my friend I could just jump up and down and yell alleluia. (I don’t think I will though; somehow I don’t think the “Take a Stand Foundation” people in the next office would understand :-)).

I love you,

Sam
