How far can you love?

Its been a few days since my last blog post, but that has nothing to do with current levels of love. Life recently couldn't be better. Things in Bangkok are perfect...and the weather has even gotten a little cooler!

But I want to talk about certain moments in time. The moments where you are sitting out looking over the ocean, or at a bar, or just sitting on your couch and all you can do is look around and smile. One of those innocent "wow how did I get here" smiles.  I had one of these moments yesterday while out on a fishing trip with all of the guys. It was actually an awesome trip, around 15 of us guys headed out an hour outside of the city and had a blast catching giant Mekong Catfish. They were around 50 poinds! Which was by far the biggest fish most of us had ever seen. But we were having a great day just drinking beers, enjoying the sun, and channeling on man sides. But there was a moment after I had just caught a fish, I sat down on and just looked out. Everyone was fired up, laughing and having a good time. It was around 4pm, so that great sunlight was out where everything seems perfect. I was just sitting there and couldnt stop thinking about how I was sitting at a small lake about an hour outside of Bangkok. Out of all of the potential places in the world to be; I was here. And it was perfect. And what made it even better is the fact that I have a women in my life named Brianna who makes everything I do in life a little bit better. Even when my crazy, wide eyed girl isn't there with me, like as in yesterday. She is there in my heart (not in a lame mushy way) and always there to help me appreciate the moment. But I couldn't help to picture sitting out down the cape just at the beach around sunset, laying with B, and laughing at the fact that life is almost too perfect to be alive.


And that brings up another question.

"how deep can a love affair get if you dont know the darkest recesses of your lovers soul?"

This brings up a good point. I feel that not just specific to relationships, but whichever endeavor you are engaging yourself in, it is imperative that you know exactly what you are dealing with. In the case of a relationship, it is essential to lay all your cards on the table early on. Nothing would be worse than after putting your heart and soul into something you learn something out down the line that would get in the way of the relationship, and potentially upset it. But instead, putting everything in the open early on, you can realize what cards people are holding and how to move on with the current situation at hand, and not be shocked by it later on. And love can't reach its full potential if you haven't ventured into the darkest areas. So my philosophy: just let the other person know what the deal is, and there shouldn't be many problems. 

And if you have a boss girlfriend like Bri... you really shouldnt have many issues.

Look forward to many blogs coming the next few months!! Our hearts are in the home stretch of being apart.
