Sail Away With Me

Genuine happiness. That's something we provide each other when we're together. Doing something so simple. It's something anyone should look forward to. Being able to do simple things with the person they love, and to be genuinely happy doing so. I love seeing that face of yours when you smile so hard your eyes barely open and your nose crinkles up. It's the best face out of all the funny goofy faces you make. There's just something about that smile of yours that melts me in to pieces. Everyday I wake up eager to see that exact smile, and living far apart makes that difficult. But it leaves us with excitement and readiness for the moment when we come together again. There are plenty of things we have and haven't done together, but every time we do something new, like rowing a boat, we learn things about each other. Although I already knew this, that day you were nothing but supportive. We laughed at how overly confident I was, but I could feel it was all with love. I had been so prepared and confident to do something I had never done before, once again (as I always do), I expected everything to be easy. And instead of you just telling me to give up, you told me to keep trying, and I got to the point where I wasn't completely horrible (that's an understatement). But you are always there and ready to give me the support and push I need. I don't know how I would be getting through this semester or how I would have gotten through this past summer without you. The constant motivation speeches that you give me help so much, I could never be any more thankful than I am. The support and confidence you supply me with, allows me to be happy. And I want nothing less than  to provide you with that same genuine happiness.

With love always,
Becca

P.s. When you get the chance, listen to "Come Away With Me" by Norah Jones <3 I love you!

So close! We are so close to the end of the month. We've almost made it. I will finally have time off, and won't be as tired as I've been. Thank you love for sticking with me this month. I know it's been hard. With all of my sleepiness and staying on campus to get work done, even when we see each other, I feel like it lasts for just a few moments. There is also something super exciting about seeing our diplomas next to each other. For two, first-generation college students, we sure have done well for ourselves. Teamwork makes the dream work right?? I think so! It definitely helps to have a superstar on the team anyway. And by superstar, I mean Mr. Do-It-All-Himself-Colón. Thank you for being such a great teammate! With love always, Becca Colón P.s. I still don't know why you don't complain about the accent mark!

Sometimes we see, read, or hear things that we try to get across. For me lately, I've been trying to get across what young love means, and the beauty of it. Today, I came across another blog, where someone worded it in simplest form. Short, sweet, and to the point. Thank you Anonymous, I couldn't have said it better myself. " The question is asked: “Is there anything more beautiful in life than a young couple clasping hands and pure hearts in the path of marriage? Can there be anything more beautiful than young love?” And the answer is given: “Yes, there is a more beautiful thing. "It is the spectacle of an old man and an old woman finishing their journey together on that path. Their hands are gnarled but still clasped; their faces are seamed but still radiant; their hearts are physically bowed and tired but still strong with love and devotion. Yes, there is a more beautiful thing than young love. Old love.” " With love always, Becca Colón P

Exactly one year ago today. The time has truly flown by. I've posted this video a few times before, but we're finally at it's anniversary. What a year it has been love! Crazy, to say the least. We legit spent majority of our first year together apart. It's okay though, we made it back to where we need to be. I love you bub! With love always, Becca Colón P.s. Looks just like Rachel from Suits haha.
