1 year together. When I was younger, I could imagine myself with someone for 1, 4, 15 years together, but heartache in the past couple of years made me weary that I could achieve that, at least not at the age of 23. But through personal growth and finding a person who would and did grow with me, I am slowly hopeful that I can find a love that will last. My fear that we'll break up at any given day is fading away, replaced by a confidence that anything that is successful needs to be worked on tirelessly and living in fear hinders growth. I do not take our relationship for granted as I understand fully that what we have may not last forever. But through continuous growth, care, and communication, I think this can work. For how long I do not know, but I'm learning and growing and in love, and I can't help but be hopeful and count my blessings.
