Happy Valentine's Day!!

There are four questions of value in this life... What is sacred? Of what is the spirit made? What is worth living for, and what is worth dying for? The answer to each is the same. Only love.

I've decided to make this post all about Jon. My family doesn't really know him, and I'm sure they're a little concerned about who exactly I've run off and gotten engaged to. Jon is quite possibly the most amazing man I've ever met. He's always gentle and kind, and he never fails to keep my smiling, and keep me laughing. He has dreams, and he dreams big, yet he's always supportive of my dreams as well. He does something to surprise me everyday, even if he doesn't know he's doing it. We may not make a lot of money seeing as I'm out of a job right now, but he works hard everyday to provide for me. He works two jobs but never lets me see him without a smile on his face.
 Today was our first Valentine's day together. He's been hiding my present for days and it's been driving me crazy. Everyone who knows me knows how well I handle surprises. Normally I can talk him out of whatever surprise he has for me. He'll try for a little bit to hide it, and then I get the best of him. This time I couldn't do it. It was driving me crazy. He got home from work and gave me my gifts a bit early. (Not really early... it was technically Valentine's day. Midnight counts... right?) I opened the door and to my surprise he was holding a dozen red roses in a vase. I giant kitty stuffed animal, a card, and some candy(which I gave back to him and told him to eat it because i'm dieting.). He bought the movie Across the Universe for us to watch together, and after the movie he gave me a beautiful ring from his grandmother. I haven't been this happy in ages and I think that's what matters. He makes me happy. I've never really been happy. All who know me, know this. This is the one man that can make me smile without even trying. I think of him as an angel. He saved me from myself when no one else could. It reminds me of a really good quote I found today.
Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.
Lao Tzu
He is definitely my strength. I love him more than anything, and I don't give my love easily. Needless to say he's a keeper. I don't know when we're getting married but I will let everyone know. I hope everyone is as happy today as I am.
