My mate finally got an apartment, and we will be moving in as soon as he gets the signal to do so, which should be within the next couple weeks. I'm more than thankful. I need to make amends. With most of the stress out of the way, hopefully we can communicate easier and heal our emotional wounds. This past year has been tough. I let my demons take control for too long. As long as he understands that I'm willing to listen, I hope with all my heart we can stay in each other's arms.
This migration to Missouri was both the most rewarding and most painful experience I've had. But I do not regret it. I learned so much, and I will continue to. And I am and will always try to change for the better. To improve my life and the lives of those I love.
