In 2015, I moved to north Georgia with my parents. I was 27 years old, and recovering from a long bout of mania straight out of a psychiatric hospital in Maryland. I was slowly healing- with strong family support- but I was lonely. I was beginning to believe I would be a burden for the remainder of my existence.
Throughout the start of my new situation, I made and lost friends. Rush was constant, supportive, unwavering, and had more patience than anyone I had ever met. We became good friends, and soon we were more than partners. We fell in love.
Rush is easy to love. He causes boisterous laughter, draws out a smile- no matter how poorly a day has gone. Rush genuinely cares for others. He doesn’t make empty promises. When someone is in trouble, he is quick to aid. He loves deeply, and is loyal to family and friends. Kind to all. Rush is a good listener, so skilled that you might think he isn’t listening. If you are fortunate to know Rush even a little, you can feel the warmth of his heart and bask in the rays of his bright character. I am honored to know him, and lucky enough to be his wife.
Recently we celebrated Rush’s birthday. I celebrate his birth every day, and try not to take him for granted. When you find a person this wonderful, do not let them slip through your fingers. Rush is quite a catch. I am planning to keep him.
Happy birthday, to the love of my life!
