I am going to need you to hold up your end, not all the time, but mostly. That is not to say I don't appreciate your struggle, who doesn't struggle? But working together we go further. Sometimes that means you will have to wait on the down slope for me to catch up. Sometimes that means you will have to walk back up that steep slope to help me down so I can stand beside you. That's okay I presume. That is what we signed up for after all....til death do us part.
When I wobble, I would like to keep that inside. There is enough going on outside of this that keeps me troubled enough. When it is kept inside, I feel safe. I feel like tomorrow is a do over. No judgment. No reminder of could of would of should of. Still I need you to do me a solid. Continue to come at this real. Come at this 150%. Because what is going on outside of this is real and not easy. Stand firm for me, for us! Do what we do even when I can't catch up....even when you are doing most of it.
I must remind myself to say thank you! Because damn life ain't a crystal staircase, but it is a thing worth climbing.
When it seems I have fallen off the "I love you more than "X" grid, I remind you to charge that to my struggle, that internal struggle inside. The one that says DO THIS FOR THOSE THAT PAVED THE WAY. DO IT HARD. DO IT RIGHT. DO IT BETTER THAN THOSE THAT PASSED YOU THE BATON.
Thank you in advance for the next time I am stuck on that slope and you stop everything to walk up slope to rescue me!
