We go through life almost inevitably with one. We all do. They don't have to be human. Your partner I suppose could be your car, your tv, your computer. But they can only fill in poorly for your real partner who in the ideal world is in fact, very human.
As I lay to bed tonight I thought of my wife, how she goes to bed with the thought of me being there for her and she being there for me. What would life be like without her, almost incomparable, almost incomprehensible. I want to think of her in this moment. I want to write it down. Her excitement to see me as I wake up, as I come back from work, or from anywhere. To be able to be completely ourselves with each other. For her blind faith in me, my abilities, and my future, our future. All will be well, all will be exciting and all will be tolerable... As long as she is there.
