I shall be forever grateful.

I am being allowed to get carried away. Allowed to be crazy. Allowed to become a fool. Yes, to be in love. My beloved has given me permission to be in love. There is no greater gift than that. For my beloved to say it's all right for me to fall in love. Because I cannot foist love on anyone. She must be receptive. And she is. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I shall be forever grateful. --Jim Broede
