Open if it was your birthday today:

9 Years Ago


At the time I am writing this, it is three o'clock in the morning, December 19th. It is the birthday of someone very close to me, but he has already blown out his candles, celebrated with his friends, and if he was very good this year even had some birthday sex. I hope he had the brightest day imaginable, because he is the brightest person I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. This year has seen challenges, brought smiles, and sent surprises, and next year will be so much better. But even as the sun sets on his day and begins to rise in mine there is a chance that one day we could share a moment. That is enough for me. 
I don't have any presents, not anything important, but I have a promise to give; a promise that that moment does exist. Despite any worrying that we may have, any fears, any doubts, there is an undeniable certainty that someday I will give him a birthday kiss, and a few more that I missed over the years. I will kiss him and remind him of what he should already know: that he very, very much loved, and important, and amazing and talented and funny and all the wonderful things that make him him. Also that he should drink better booze because he's worth it. :P 
I hope you had a wonderful birthday, Josh, and I hope to share one with you someday. Happy birthday from America.
