Gratitude.

This letter serves as my complete release of all the expressions of gratitude and thanks. Well, complete as in "as much as I can pour until I run out of ideas of expressing it".

It is not everyday that you meet another soul that connects to the heart.
And when you do eventually find one, you must with all your strength and capabilities keep them close to you and never lose them.

Fortunately I have found a few, and this very individual is none other than the above.

I am really glad that I met this pretty little angel. Someone that understands me without the mask. Someone who accepts me as who I am. Someone who can make me feel at ease around: Both around herself and also in my own perception of me.
There seems to be no barrier in between, even as our ages vary by almost 5 months. A year in effect, but mathematically 5 months and 5 days my senior.

Today I even had the gracious pleasure of meeting her family. And I have to say, the lot is a wonderful company to be around.
Cheerful, gracious, welcoming, warm, courteous... all these words seem to fall short of expressing thoroughly the true nature of these individuals. As personalities, you could not ask for more. As a family, no fault could be identified. As members of the society, nothing could be more perfect.

To be frank, feeling inferior around them in terms of self-reflection is almost as automatic as a rusty screw bouncing into a jeweler's shop. But they make you feel so welcome, almost like they brought heaven itself to Earth. Uncanny, but seriously, you need to experience it yourself to understand the true beauty of this family.

Back to the angel. I must make a note to myself that this is one person that I must not let go no matter what.
I have seen the fragile side of this soul, and I must strive to protect and preserve the luster of this jewel. Because there is much of a future that lies in wait for this fortunate being. And that it would be a waste to let the world in general not receive the blessing of this talented soul.

I guess I have to really devise new and intuitive ways of repaying this person. "Thank you" just doesn't cut it anymore....
