Well the first day has come and gone, and I can say his name without crying now.
I know that two years is a long time, but eternity is longer.
And truth is, I need this time just as much as he does. We need to grow individually and learn more things about each other. Every letter and package is just going to make me love him more.
Yeah, two years is a long time. But I'd rather wait those two years and then spend eternity with my best friend.

Elder Daniel Gary Laird.
It's only 2 years.
That's what I keep trying to tell myself, anyway.
I can't write a lot about him or I'll start crying. But I just want to tell everyone about my best friend.
His name is Daniel Gary Laird, and he's amazing. Everything about him makes me smile.
He's kind and patient, he's sweet and understanding, and he's everything I could've asked for and more.
He's going to be gone for the next two years. But that's okay, because this is what he needs to be doing.
He'll come back.
And when he does, I think I might marry that boy.

Thank you.
This is for all those who looked down on me, or who told me that I can't.
This or for every moment of hesitation, and for every ounce of pain or ache.
This is for every time I wasn't good enough for other people's standards, and for every time I was the topic for conversations behind closed doors.
This is for every doubt, and every fear I ever had placed on my shoulders.
Thank you. I couldn't have done it without you. You pushed me hard enough to finish.

Take a second and breathe it in.
One of the greatest things I've ever learned in my life is to be your own person. Im sure you remember posts about it; dealing with frustration, doubters and things I definitely didn't see coming. But after a while, I learned to let it not bother me.
Honestly, in this world there are going to be so many people who look down on you. There are going to be so many people who make you angry or call you out.
Take it. Breathe it in. Trust me, it's a good thing. Having haters means you actually stood up for something. You put yourself out there.
You.Were.Different.
And that, my friend, is a beautiful thing. Just like you.
