I don't know if you knew this or not (if you know me, of course you did), but I truly love my boyfriend, Aaron. I don't like to send it out to the world but sometimes you just have to say it. We have been together a year as of the 26th of January. As I sat at my $500 Facebook machine Tuesday night, I realized I truly love him. Why? Because he gave me a bundle of flowers in a Kerr jar with a fuzzy blanket and pillow combo. Because he had to go look at used furniture shops before we could go to Longhorn Sunday night. Because he did not find it necessary to spend loads of money on me on Valentine's Day and let me study for calculus as he studied for soils.
However, I decided to be sweet and replace the buckle he broke a month or two ago. This buckle read "The American Farmer feeds the World". Aaron wore it when he won Farm Bureau Ambassador and I knew that I must replace it. Unfortunately he knew what it was when he saw the size of the package and I was not there when he opened it due to the calc test but I think it made him happy.
This is the lifestyle I grew up in and hope to continue on in for the rest of my life. I do not want to be given diamonds and rubies but rather love and compassion. And mason jars.
Oh and as an added note, Aaron took that picture and pointed out that the clouds make a heart in the sky.
Love,
Julia
Your depiction of what true love actually looks and feel like is beautiful, and as I do know you, it pretty much hit the nail on the head. Your love for Aaron is a once in a life time love.(reference to The Vow that I just watched) :) Your post reminds all of us that true love exist, especially in the littlest things. I am so glad that your upbringing has shaped you into a beautiful young lady that can appreciate the most important things in life.
