Happy Thanksgiving to my American friends and readers!
Today I started thinking about long distance.
This train of thought usually leads to one obvious conclusion: I hate being apart from my husband.
I hate it more than anything, I hate long-distance, I hate Skype, I hate talking to my computer, I hate not having the love of my life with me all the time.
Because we love being together all the time. We don't need any "me" time. Our "me" time is our "we" time.
So you get it, long distance and I aren't friends.
But then I got to thinking about the things I'm thankful for.
And somehow, in a weird twist, long distance made it onto the list.
Because long distance makes me miss my husband every second of every day.
Because it makes me realize how lucky I am to have found him.
Not that I need long distance to realize it. But it forces me to think about it more.
Every day, I miss him, I get mad, and then realize I am so grateful to have found the One.
And he might be thousands of miles away, I still feel like the luckiest girl in the world.
Long distance makes me mad, sad, passionate, crazy, hysterical, scared, thankful.
Long distance makes the I Love You even better, and the goodbyes even harder.
But with every new day spent apart, our love grows stronger.
Because instead of drifting apart, creating separate lives, long distance makes our purpose even clearer.
We just want to be together.

You'll make it! Keep your head up, and stay positive :)
Good post. Keep up the positivity - you'll be so strong by the end of this all - which will in turn keep your relationship strong!
You can do it! One of my best friends was recently reunited with her British partner in Canada. It is a long process but we (yes I am speaking for all Canadians hehe) are excited that you are on your way <3 bizxoxo
Sweet and inspiring to read. How hard it must be... But you did find your man! :) You've got him for sure!
Long distance relationships are all of those things! I completely agree! Once my husband and I got married, he lived in Germany and I lived in California. Then, he went to Afghanistan, and I was still in California. Hang in there...when you're finally together again, it's the best. :)

This is so great and SO TRUE! I hates doing the long distance thing as well but in the end, all I could do was surrender to the fact that I had no control over it and appreciate it.
Just feeling the same... ;)
