When You Love Someone

One year gone, but definitely not forgotten. This boy is the epitome of what you get when you stick with someone through the bad times. He came scratching, howling and biting in to my life, took me through periods of terrible lows, sometimes forcing me in to change, and left me with patience and gratitude. 
My ego misses him dearly, but his departure taught me about the everlasting state of change that we live in. It is only really by living in the present that I can let change happen without being too wounded by loss.
