A Rare Kind of Magic

Today is the day that my beloved was born.  Forty three years ago, he arrived, brown hair, green eyes and perfect in every way.  Every moment from that day was created for his growth and preparation in life.  Life threw numerous trials and tribulations in his way — some which caused the blood from his veins to leave his body, others bringing him to his knees and the heart wrenching lessons that made him doubt, regret and shattered his heart.

This is the rock in my life.  A person who is built with so much greatness that nothing that was thrown his way could defeat him.  He is a man who has principles; a warm, gentle heart; and big hands to help many, but tender enough to make one feel safe.  His greatest gift being the love that he is, and the biggest enemy the mind that he has.

Through sleepless nights and frustrating limitations, his mind took over and created disillusionment.  He gave up and fell down.  But he picked himself up — time after time — defeating all odds, overcoming insurmountable challenges and winning losing battles.

This is my love, a person of strength, a man who has achieved so much greatness in his life, God’s favourite child for he was always guided —by God not only walking with him, but by God carry him through his most trying moments—to fulfil his destiny.  How blessed is he as a child of God.  How truly blessed I am to share my days with him.

Though challenges maybe hard and spirits may appear broken, the beauty of the person shines through the Divine light that they emanate.  And the light from him has been so bright and pure, that in his very presence people have healed their hearts by opening up to him and sharing their pain.  This is the gentleness he lives each day.  This is the love I feel within him.

My heart still flutters and skips a beat as my stomach contains the excitement of a million butterflies in love.  I take a deep long breathe in the warmth of his arms, allowing myself to drift away, knowing I will be safe and loved.  My soul has journeyed to many places in his presence, allowing me to break beyond the boundaries of all limitation.

This is the man I know, this is his truth.  This is the love he is and even though it may not be visible to him at all times, he definitely shares a rare kind of magic with all that cross his path.
