On our anniversary

This is my gift to you, my dear… all that I am, all that I have is yours.
I am because of you.

Today my boyfriend and I celebrate a year of love. Today we celebrate that despite our differences, we cannot live without each other (yay!).

I have been debating for a while on which could be my gift to him on this special day and, I just couldn´t find anything suitable. It all seems so small right next to the greatness of his heart and the size of this love that I have for him. So I decided to write this... I want him to know why I love him so much.

You my dear, you complete me, you fill the empty spaces in my soul and complete the puzzle of my life. 

1. He cares about my heart, how it feels and, how warm or cold it is. When the dark days knock the door, he is there to keep me safe and to turn the light on… no darkness is allowed when I am with him.
2. He supports me on my plans, no matter how stupid or crazy they are, he motivates me to make them happen.
3. His heart is pure. For him, no evil resides on people´s hearts.
4. He is strong. He can take more than an army all together. No matter how hard life may get, he always has a smile, a positive thought and a plan to get out of the downhill.
5. He is straightforward. He never hesitates to say what comes to his mind…
6. He is smart. I don´t think I know anyone as smart as Mario when I comes to financials, the market behavior and the business he is in.
7. He is handsome. No further explanation needed here. :P
8. He is kind. I know he could give all his possessions away, to help others. For him everything is worth if it makes someone smile.
9. He is humble. No matter how much I or a person tells him how amazing he is, he still doubts that what we are saying is true.
10. His dance moves… oh well…
11. He listens… to every story I have to tell, to every emotion, situation, work matter, thought or random fact I have to say. God knows he listens, because when I tell him another random thing, he remembers the first one and gives me a comparative analysis of my thoughts.
12. He knows me better than I know myself at times…
13. He loves his family. He genuinely wants to be close to them and to know them better… He cares about them, he wants their hearts to be in peace and happy.
14. He is an amazing friend.
15. He is a happy and funny person. No day is a boring day with him in it :D
16. He is always under control… no matter how bad the situation may look, he never loses his temper.
17. He cherishes everyone around him, through affection, words of support or a loving hug.
18. He likes the fact that I am a nerd (wahooo!)
19. He encourages me to be better (because I am no perfect :P)
20. He teaches me about patience and about making good decisions (not in 30 seconds like I normally do lol)
21. He tells me how pretty I look, even when I am not wearing a drop of make up :,)
22. He celebrates my wins
23. He supports me in my failures and helps me find the learning out of every situation
24. He always say yes, whether is an invitation to pray, to a dance in the middle of a busy mall or to run under the rain... He always joins me when I am being silly, crazy or funny.
25. And most importantly he has God in his heart. And this is what makes him the most incredible man on earth. 

These are only 25 reasons why I love my Mario… and why I pray to God this is just the first of many years together. The truth is that I could write a thousand reasons why I love him, because in a heart his size the beautiful gifts God put on him are endless. 

Today I am thankful for what has been, for what has happened in our lives and hearts. May our path be full of joy, love and blessings.

I love you… with all that I have, all that I am and even further.
Happy anniversary.
