Selfish


I'll be the first to admit, I am selfish of your time. When it comes to time, I want to spend it all on you. I know we were talking about love languages this morning, and we joked about mine being physical touch considering how much I love to cuddle, but quality time is my actual winner. This morning I did come in the room to wake you up so we could get moving. Once I actually came back up to the room and saw you laying down so peaceful, I realized I didn't want to ruin or leave that moment. I was hoping you'd say you were tired and just wanted to stay in for a little. You didn't, but in my head, I already decided we would relax for a bit. Between you working, me working, and random things going on throughout our weeks, we really don't get enough time together. At least not awake that is. So, when moments like this morning come by, I struggle with my selfishness. It was interesting learning about your strongest love language. I agree with you, you can argue for them all. But your "if I had to chose" is definitely something I've caught on to. Good ol' acts of service. And Sara wonders why I try to make it a point to cook every day (well, most days). This is why. I know you enjoy when people think about things, and do them with purpose. I know how much you looked forward to taking home cooked lunches to work, which is why I get up every morning to prepare your breakfast and lunch, even if I have the chance to sleep in. Our love languages may be different, but they work. The more time we have together, the better we'll get at understanding our love languages. We got this!

With love always,
Becca Colón

P.s. Our love languages are probably in reverse order of each other's.

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.
