I Found Him

Or better yet, he found me. 

I have never felt so safe with someone until he came along.  It started with a text to seek an advice a few weeks ago.  Then it was to catch up after not being in touch for the last three years.  Just like that, we were on the phone, talking about our favorite topics - workers rights, the state of the world, and how we can make it better.  The calls went from "hello" at 10:00 pm, to 2:00 am, when I was just too tired to continue talking, even though getting off the phone got harder each time.  The truth is, I have never felt so comfortable and connected to someone so instantly, as if I have known him for years.  His voice - patient and respectful, his tone - soothing with love.  He said he admires me.  Little does he know that he earned my respect and admiration the moment we had our first conversation four years ago.  He is clever and determined.  He has no fear of evil.  He always knows how to confront threats of physical harm, and he stands up for people he represents.  He is simply a force to reckon with.  For his intense commitment to justice, and for his tenderness towards me, I am falling in love.

Perhaps, this is my last entry about my singlehood.
