When you know you’ve got it made… when you have communication at the backdrop of all the major events in your life with your better half.

I do not claim to be the perfect partner, infact, i do not claim to be even close. I have a lot of issues of my own, a lot of skeletons in my closet(s), and not to mention, a past which makes me see patterns in behavior which might not be there and (over)react accordingly.

Eventually though, i calm down, i forget the specifics and i remember the new patterns. These last few weeks, many facets of life have been clamoring for attention simultaneously, and being human, i’ve been stressed out quite a bit. From work, to family, to the new family, to friends… events occur and i’m left wondering.. how the hell do i manage?

Which is where she comes in, the bedrock of my sanity. Understanding, caring and above all, selfless, she’s made me wade through the though times, the waves, and the storms and let me weather it all out. What more could a guy ask for?
I’m not putting her up on a pedestal, though i badly want to. I realize it would be unfair to her, to her flaws and to her sensitivities. Through this post, im just acknowledging that throughout it all, she’s been a major factor to my sanity… she’s been my sanity check!
