He kisses me all the time and my favorite ones are the random ones; the ones when we are simply next to one another maybe at church listening to the pastor or while I’m playing the piano or sitting at a table and he walks by. It is such a simple thing, a peck of hello and affection upon my head and it says within that quiet moment that he is happy and feeling blessed.
I'm enjoying the quiet things of life with my firefly like family time, a meal, conversation. These are things I happily enjoyed alone in solo monthly trips to San Diego or coming home after a long day of activity to make a meal for myself, light a candle and write.
It's ironic that in the space of wanting to create healthy mindfulness within a romantic relationship and experiencing the commitment to the conversation by someone who cares….really really cares…..other relationships are starting to stand out in how they are compromising. The weight that some choose to press me without a sense of wise compassionate insight has been …disappointing.
So here I have in my firefly world, a loving soul that is genuinely connected to me even with his respective independent interests. How he treats me with kindness and respect and grows his life tells me how he loves his life.
When he gives me those random favorite kisses, my lips never touch his. He kisses me when i am not even looking. Like taking a moment to enjoy a flower in the garden. Those kisses are firefly’s way of saying thank you not to me but rather to life and God. :)
