And So It Goes...



The pristine air was suddenly interrupted by a shrill

BEEP
BEEP
BEEP
She didn’t even feel him roll out of bed but silence had overtaken the room once more.
Good morning Princess, time to get up.”
The sunlight coming through the window was enough to make her bury her head in the pillow again and snuggle further beneath the blankets.
However, bright sunlight is never a curse.
Walking to the car together, hand in hand, backpacks and notebooks occupying any other spare space.
The sun brightened the day. Snow sparkled on the mountains, birds chirped in the trees.
Lifting her face to the light and letting out a sigh were enough to show him that it was going to be a good day.

Classes,
Classes,
And more classes.
Learning about trigonometry, chemistry, and novels coming from way back when don’t exactly warrant reason to shout for joy,
But the day had begun and not a moment would pass without a smile or a happy thought.

Work,
Work,
And more work.
He sometimes comes home with a few cuts on his hands, but loves showing his bosses how to use the CNC.
Most of all he loves designing things either for the apartment or his portfolio.
She smiles every time she gets to talk to the old people and has to laugh a little at some of the more disgusting moments-
Diarrhea all over the floor,
Overflowed toilet, the bathroom literally a pond,
Oh the smells, the sights.
The sun has disappeared behind the beautiful Utah mountains.
The clear air and lights of the city make for an exciting drive home.
They embrace as they are reunited for a night all to themselves.
Games, hot tub, exercising, movies or TV until the moon is high and eyes are heavy.
They kneel side by side, hand in hand, together as one
Before holding each other tight and quietly whispering...
Goodnight Princess, I love you!”
Goodnight My Love…”



Goals:
          Live every moment as though it is the last,
          Smile to brighten the world around you,
          Laugh freely and often,
          Find joy in the smallest and seemingly insignificant things.
