Run

I just heard a live version of 'Run' by Snow Patrol. It's a song that means a lot to Wayne and I. I guess it would be 'Our Song' (that and 'Your body is a wonderland' but that's another kind of entry). He sent it to me while we were still going through our long distance relationship. I won't soon forget the first time I listened to it with tears streaming down my face (both because I was so happy he felt that way and because I couldn't believe how well the song described what we were going through). Today, as I listened to it - I cried once again thinking about what it was like all those times that we had to say goodbye -not wanting to let him go in fear that I might not see him again. Long distance relationships are so hard and I can't help but feel blessed that we made it through (I've been trough one that was painfully unsuccessful). But three years on and we're together and happy. Three years on and my favorite part of the day is still going to sleep with him each night -I can't describe the feeling of contentment, security and happiness it gives me curling up to sleep with him. We are so lucky.
Since we made the decision to move back to the States, I've been caught up in the stress and worry of what's involved in such a move and trying to figure out if it's something we should really do -forgetting how far we've come. Listening to that song has really put it in perspective for me. As scary as it is to take the risk of starting over again -I know we'll be okay.
