Stay You

Maybe I'm old school when it comes to love, but I've believed you love someone for who they are and not for what you want them to be.  When you fall in love for real with someone it should be unconditional and not with plans of changing them into what you want or believe is better.  We are who we are for a reason, God made no mistakes in creating any of us.  I carry my heart very carefully, and I give it out very rarely, so when I fall in love with someone you can believe that I have fallen in love with every bit of who they are with no desire to change them in any way.

I firmly believe nobody is perfect, this includes myself, therefore I can't expect perfection out of anyone else.  So there is always room for improvement in all of us, we all are one choice away from falling to rock bottom to rising to the mountain top at any given moment.  I don;t have all the right answers, and neither does anyone else no matter how hard they try to pretend to.  Nobody knows what is best for themselves except themselves. 

I say all this for a reason, I want the woman I love to know I think she is amazing and perfect just the way she is.  Can she grow, of course, truth is we all can, but I see her trying to better herself every day, I see her efforts, and I see her plans.  Sometimes she succeeds, and sometimes she stumbles, but believe me when I say she always gets back up and tries again.  Her heart and mind are always willing, sometimes the means just aren't there yet.  But I see it in her, one day very soon, all her efforts will pay off.  And I just want her to believe in herself, stay the course, and don't change who she is and what she is striving for.  I love her completely, and all my resources will always be at her disposal.  In many ways I have come to terms with the reality that I belong to her.

All I want her to understand is she can conquer anything she desires, her dreams are within her reach, but she has to realize one thing, stay true to who she is, don't let money change you or your choices, don't let shortcuts derail you, don't give in to temptation or hatred, don't run from hard work.  So much in this world is manipulated and twisted nowadays, don't listen to it.  No matter who you are, I promise you if you stay true to yourself, do things the right way, and don't let this world change you, then God will find a way for you to live your dreams and be happy.

She isn't always right, but she isn't always wrong.  Truth is, I believe in her and trust her.  I know she is trying and planning, I know she is not lazy, she is looking for that chance, and I know one chance is all she will ever need.  I want to be her man, and I want to be able to provide for her and I am willing and able, but I know she is strong, and I know she is more than capable of standing on her own two feet.  However, this doesn't scare me one bit, I do not fear her strength, in fact I embrace it.  To her I say don't change for anyone, and this includes me, be you and stand tall and stand strong.  Those who truly love you will stay with you and not talk down to you in anyway, those who love you will not try to change you, those who love you will support you no matter what without telling what to do with your life.  Love is more than money, it is more than looks, it is more than power, it is more than sex, love is knowing every strength and weakness about someone and never judging them, but rather loving them and supporting them no matter the situation.  This is how I love her, this is why I don't give up even when the odds are against me, this is why I trust in God to let things play out no matter what.  Just as I say to her to be her, I will always be me.  Don't settle just because of money, sex, looks, power or any material thing, love for real, love without change, love for the right reasons and nothing will ever cause you to walk away or move on.
