Anyone and everyone who has known me for any length of time knows that I stress over my schoolwork. Even though I’m a graduate student who is nearly done, I still have the same fear of failure I had as an ignorant freshman about 6 years ago.

This weekend, I was stessing so bad. Becca stepped in and gave me one more reason to marry her. She greeted my stress with soothing tones and waved it off with one brush of her hand across my face. After her loving touch, I once again realized that life’s not so bad and that everything will be ok. I’ll never have to stress alone again. I’ve found the one who can calm the rage of nerves inside of me. I don’t think it’s possible to love her anymore, but I know now that I can always love her calmly.
