Your Person

Do you have that someone?

Your person. The one who makes you a priority over everything else. If you do, hold onto that. Not everyone gets it.

I sometimes wonder how people find that kind of connection. Is it a friend? A partner? A spouse?

Someone you see every day? Someone who chose you and keeps choosing you?

Time changes things. Love doesn’t always stay bright in the same way it was at the beginning. Youth fades. Excitement softens. But I’d like to think the heart — the steady part — can still stand tall. Right?

I write romantic comedies because I want to believe that kind of connection exists. That in this loud, unpredictable world, there are still people who find their person and feel safe there. Chosen. Seen.

I don’t think happily-ever-afters mean perfection. I think they mean deciding — over and over — that someone matters. <3

Maybe hope isn’t naive. Maybe it’s necessary.

So I’ll keep believing that what we’re looking for might be closer than we think.

And if you’ve found your person, I hope you know how lucky you are. :)

(And if you haven’t yet… I still think there’s hope for the rest of us. :P)
