I
On my finger, I wear a silver ring with a simply cut blue topaz. I chose it because of the stone and the way the silver winds itself around the flesh in two infinity symbols. Blue topaz is the stone of true love and success in everything one does. I bought it because it reminds me of you. Each day I understand more fully why you have come into my life, and how we have become entwined well beyond this life now.
On this quiet December day, this is my first gift to you, the first wish, the first dream from the deepest part of my heart – that true love and success will weave itself through the very fabric of your life, and touch every single thread. May you be wrapped in this love, may you breathe it in deeply, may it surround you every moment of every day.
If I could give you one thing – of all other things it is the truth of love.
There is a song that I am learning the music and lyrics to right now – a surprise for sometime in the future. The words are strongly in my ears now:
When the rain
Is blowing in your face
And the whole world
Is on your case
I could offer you
A warm embrace
To make you feel my love
When the evening shadows
And the stars appear
And there is no one there
To dry your tears
I could hold you
For a million years
To make you feel my love
I know you
Haven’t made
Your mind up yet
But I would never
Do you wrong
I’ve known it
From the moment
That we met
No doubt in my mind
Where you belong
I’d go hungry
I’d go black and blue
I’d go crawling
Down the avenue
No, there’s nothing
That I wouldn’t do
To make you feel my love
The storms are raging
On the rolling sea
And on the highway of regret
Though winds of change
Are throwing wild and free
You ain’t seen nothing
Like me yet
I could make you happy
Make your dreams come true
Nothing that I wouldn’t do
Go to the ends
Of the Earth for you
To make you feel my love
~ Adele Make You Feel My Love

I cannot yet sing this song entirely – mid way I begin to think about you and start to cry. It is difficult to cry and sing at the same time. I am not sure that I will be able to stand on stage and sing this to you, but one day I will…
Feel the love around you, let it touch you, touch your soul and remind you that you deserve love in your life. You do.
On this first day of Christmas, this is what I give to you. Two lives touching the same stone.
True love forever.
