You can be sure about this: When it comes to you, I am ruled by my heart, and when it comes to my heart, you are the ruler of all. Loving you has always been an act of surrender.

Jerry told me you told him that I was tenacious. I know you appreciate that about me, but now that I think about it, I wonder why that is. Tell me, My Love, why are you so fond of my tenacity?

Jerry also told me that when you told him I was tenacious, he told you that my heart leads me. It could be said that both things are true—I am tenacious and I am led by by heart. However, I think it would be most accurate to say that I am tenacious when I am led by my heart:

I cannot ignore my heart, and I would not ignore it even if I could. It has been my experience that the path that follows my heart’s desire is the path of no regret. Or at least it is the path of least regret.

When I follow my heart, I am my authentic self. When I follow my heart I am unable to manipulate others. When I follow my heart. I let go of expectations. Instead, I am chasing dreams. I am finding space within me to burn a candle. I cultivate hopefulness. I honor my own sweetness.

I cannot turn away from my own heart and my heart longs for you. This is what it means to love with reckless abandon. This is the fuel for my tenacity. Is that why you like it?
