If someone with English not as their first language were to ask you the difference between the term 'look' and the term 'see', you would say there is none, or at least very little. But the truth is that there is a vast ocean between one and the other...
Over a year ago, I blogged about the end of my relationship with Superman. In that post, I mentioned a man who came in and swept me off my feet in a way Superman couldn't. He was the one to show me that I deserve better, am responsible for ensuring that better happens. There was an intense connection with this man, and I felt that he, like my Caribbean boyfriend, was one of the few who could really "see" me.
Last night, I had the opportunity to spend just a few minutes with him, and we picked up exactly where we left off a year ago. This time, though, there is a very special person in my life, and he was nothing but understanding and respectful of the situation. Unlike Superman, he thought Lizard was good for me.
And, indeed, Lizard is an amazing man, and our relationship is blooming and blossoming. And I know what we have is special, unique, and only ours, yet every once in awhile it's nice to meet someone, find someone, cross paths with someone who, well, just fits. And for these people, I am eternally grateful for the influence they've had on my life. Here's to always striving for happiness...
