My Secret Weapon



Well babe, it is my last week of classes and I can say you've taught me so much this semester from afar, and so much in the weekend alone. When I say, Marc got the cry baby of the sisters, I'm not kidding. You know how you hear about people who cry because they see something like a rock? To put it into perspective, that's me. I pretty much get scared, paranoid, and emotional over everything. Hence, why school this semester has been crazy without Marc by my side being able to comfort me the way he once had. But he has done a great job of helping me and guiding me through school when I need it. And sometimes the best lessons you learn aren't even in school. If you know what I'm studying (Sociology), you know my major is nothing but a bunch of people who are trying to save the world. That's a lot of pressure when tons of people could care less about anyone but themselves, or anything that won't affect them. Your eyes have to be peeled back 24/7 because you have to be cautious about why people do the things they do, and why they feel that way. Sometimes we say things and don't even realize we are hurting others, and thankfully I have someone like Marc who likes to analyze everything, because his analyzing comes in handy. I get to take on different perspectives that I might not have thought of before. I'd like to say Marc is my secret weapon. Maybe it's all the analyzing that he does, that allows him to be so open and willing to accept people. He never fails to help someone in need when he can. Instead of jumping to conclusions, he talks, and tries to figure out what is going on. He may not be the most patient person in general, but when it comes to helping others, his patience is endless. And that's not even a general statement, he helps me every day, even if it means helping me understand something that he might not agree with. In my field and because of how attached I've grown to my work, I don't think I'd be able to hold a relationship with anyone other than Marc. He shows me how to love and respect everyone (and that isn't easy, not even the slightest). Thank you for your never ending kind words, and effort to help others as well as myself through the rough times.

With love always,
Becca

P.s. Thank you for being my rock.

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.
