It is the Friday before Thanksgiving, and practically everyone in the dorms have cleared out. In a couple of days, everyone on my floor will have went home, and I will be alone. Except that I’m not.

My boyfriend is coming to spend the entire week with me and I couldn’t ask for anything more. I appreciate him and all his kind endeavors to make me feel at home. And the wonderful thing is, he is my home.

I get the sympathy look from people when I express that I won’t be traveling back home this holiday. I think everyone feels that this time of year is when families come together; it would be wrong to be alone.

Today I realized that without my wonderful honey, I would be extremely lonely. I tried to convince myself that I would occupy myself with things to do since I have all this free time, but I’d have that pang in my heart that I am away from everybody. I can already imagine the silence of the hallway ringing in my ears.

This Thanksgiving, I want to give all my appreciation to my wonderful babe. Not only is he the sweetest boyfriend in the world, but he always goes to great lengths to put a smile on my face. But at this moment, it is not only a smile, but tears in my eyes. I am so thankful to have someone so INCREDIBLE enough to give up everything in his life just to be with me. I’ve never been happier in my life.

I’m going to see him tomorrow and I can’t wait any longer. These past hours have been dragging; the only thing that would settle me is to see him. I have a good 12 hours more, but the smile that I will get when he walks through the door will definitely be worth the long and excruciating wait.

With everything said, I hope everybody is with people they love, because that’s the true reason to be thankful.
