Happy Anniversary Korea!

I remember when we first met. It was a dark, stormy March night. A Sunday. 11:35pm.

I was skeptical of you. You had me more scared than excited, and I didn't know what you were capable of. You challenged my fear of committment and my aviodance of being truly successful. All the things you saw in me I feared, but knew I had to embrace.

Here we are, celebrating almost 6 months together.

We've come a long way in our relationship, growing to have a mutual respect for eachother and seeing what we have to offer the other. Where I go up, you go down. Where I go right, you go left. But somehow, we always come together.

I'm struggling to decide what our next step is, and if at our 1 year anniversary it will be time to part ways or if we are in it for the long haul. I do love you, but there are other things that I love more. Its not you, its me.

I'm excited about our future and cant wait to see what else we will discover together. I love the way you push me to be a better person, teacher and human in this insane world. I love the opportunities you've given me, freely and openly. But, is there a such thing as too much of a good thing?

Self-doubt is my weakness that often prevails and leaves me frantic for more answers. Do I stay or do I go? What do I really want? Its all so much for my already busy mind to digest.

Instead of flowers or a romantic dinner, Korea I give you my respect and gratitude for all you have done for me. I hope our future together stays true and right and wonderful.
