A Virtual Date
My sweetie and I are 2000 miles apart. Since we can't be together, we stay together on line. Many times, he takes me on 'real' dates... he will spend his day preparing for the date... creating online images to go along with it. When I open up his first email of the day, I am greeted with a beautiful picture of exactly where we are spending our evening together. A beach in Australia, pictures of the cabin we are staying in, what we are having for supper, the fireplace, whatever... this brings us so much closer together knowing that we are both in the same place at the same time, sharing the same experience. Of course, in between all the images are our words...and our interactions together. It's a wonderful way to have fun together and still remain close. The next day he has taken all the images of our date and created a one-image collage of the entire experience for us to keep! It's such a sweet, thoughtful thing to do... and keeps us real to each other!
