Maludir,
We have seen good times, and plenty of bad ones on the path we have traversed to this point.
There was a moment along our journey that almost ended more than just this chance.
A moment when the thought of seeing your face wounded me.
A moment, I’m proud to say, we overcame, and dare I say blossomed from.
Standing here before you…It’s like a dream.
Maludir, your love has taught me to find what I spent so long searching for within my own self.
You’ve shown me how to love myself, and I’ve never been more comfortable just being me.
I vow to always inspire you to see the same in yourself. To show you that you are worth so much more than you think.
You have taught me that two beings joined together with respect, trust, and open communication can be far stronger and happier than each could ever be alone.
You are my best friend.
The strength I never knew I needed,
and the joy that I didn’t know I severely lacked.
You have helped me become the person I am today,
And with your help,
I will be a better person tomorrow than I was yesterday.
Wherever our journey takes us,
you will always be the reason it’s worth
taking.
I love you Maludir, today, tomorrow and forever.
Today, I choose to spend the rest of my existence with you.
I promise to love you loyally and fiercely—for time and all eternity.
