To my spiritual partner Shelly Fitzsimmons: you have challenged me to be my true, authentic self from the very first day we met. (in the words of Ziggy Marley, "Got to be true to myself...") I have had good days, bad days and goin'-half mad days, yet through it all you have been there for me. In our relationship you are home and heart. You represent patience, forethought, insight and non-judgement. What a beautiful way to be in the world!
March 21, 2009 in San Francisco, California on the occasion of my 46th birthday I was fortunate enough to experience in person, for the first time, Abraham-Hicks with you and a wonderful group of our friends. That day Abraham offered up relationship vows. Those words impacted both of us in a deep and profound way. They left us with tears in our eyes and aspirations in our hearts.
I am posting them here as a permanent reminder and as a place we can refer to whenever we may forget:
"I put pieces of you in my Vortex long before I was there and could see the whole of you.
And it was not until I got in there where I could see the whole of you that I realized how really well I had done.
In my appreciation of you I cannot help but offer appreciation to every relationship that I have ever lived that has launched this reality that now is you.
Now that I am in here seeing you in full view, it is my promise that I will do everything in my power to keep myself on the brink of, or inside the Vortex.
There is no behavior that you could offer that I will ever use as my excuse for not being in the Vortex.
And so, while it seems that I am making this promise to you, really that is not what is happening.
It is a promise of personal alignment that I am making.
I am entering into a deliberate and conscious relationship with the Source within me.
And I suspect that as you do the same thing, that on a very deep, soul-source level we will find our eternal compatibility."
It is my intention to live these vows and manifest the words as reality in my relationship with you.
Shelly, simply put; I love you.
