Blessed

I know it's super crazy late, and technically I missed the first day of November (oops). But I haven't slept yet so I think it still counts.
The first thing I am grateful for is Mr. Andy (like that is a surprise). He's pretty much the greatest thing to ever happen to me, no he really is the greatest thing to ever happen to me. Almost exactly 4 years ago we "officially" started dating and at that point in my life I was in a very dark place. He listened, he tried to understand, he held my hand, and completely accepted me the way I was. And I believe that is the greatest gift you can give someone, unconditional love and acceptance. Don't get me wrong, I tried my darnest to sabotage his efforts. And it all came down to a point when he was in Atlanta for graduate school and I was still in Rolla, and I asked a simple, but dangerously loaded question, "is this worth it?" And his response should go down in some book somewhere of the greatest things men have ever said... Ready? Here it goes... "I want to be with you, only you. Forever. I will do whatever it takes to make you see that and to make that happen. It's worth it, completely."
So today I'm grateful for a someone like him to come into my life. I'm his biggest fan, and he is mine. And that is something we all need in this world.
