I love my life.  My life is so extraordinary now, thanks to you.  I wonder if you know what a woman you are.  I sooooo love what we do together we meet for our twice a day union.  It is special beyond words.   Feelings expressed and deeply felt emotion is so beautiful; I think you are so beautiful.  Your face is hard to forget at those moments.  I will be thinking about you all day.  I love you.  - Peter Kent
 
Dear Peter Kent
 
Thank you for taking the time to make my morning. I do love this union we share and can't wait to be back at your side.  Thank you for sharing in such an intimate experience last night.  Despite my outwardly, cavalier attitude, I am very uncomfortable with my body and want so much to truly be perfect, in your eyes.  I know I am on that path, and that helps, but the way you express such acceptance of me, in my current overweight state, is more comforting than you know.  I have always been beautiful and often breathtakingly so.  Men loved me because of what I looked like and not for what was important to me.  My self-destructive behaviour resulted as much from this need to be loved for who I was as it was stress and not taking care of myself.
 
You came into my life 5 months after I had decided that I didn't need a man in my life and that I would be beautiful to please only myself.  I didn't like what I saw in the mirror.  I felt stronger, from all of the trials of the past 5 years.  I wanted to be the best that I could be, for my own gratification.  If my appearance attracted the wrong kind of lover, it didn't matter much because I didn't really think any man could capture my heart, so I was at no risk of it being broken.  Then you came along...
 
I was in awe of you, the moment I set eyes on you.  I thought you were the sexiest, most stunning creature I had ever seen.  I could have stood in the gate way and looked at you forever, just to memorize every feature of your face, your build and your hair. I did the same thing to you, that I hated having done to me.  I prejudged who you were, by what you looked like.  I assumed that you could not be loyal and that you could not love me, because you were so handsome.  I assumed your character could not possibly be as strong as your sex appeal and I had nothing to base that on, but an image of you.
 
I have loved getting to know you, because the more I learn about you, the more in awe of you, as a whole person, I am.  Your outward appearance, appealing as it is, does not even begin to compare with the beauty of your spirit.  I have been so deeply touched by your giving and loving nature.  As much as I long to be beautiful in your sight, I realize that if I had already attained that goal before meeting you, I probably would not trust your motives.  I believe you, when you say I am beautiful, because I know that you can see me on a deeper level.  I am so happy and optimistic that our lives will only continue to be made better by the way we express our love and affection for each other.  - Love, Carole
 
From Peter A. Kent:
 
Have I ever told you what wonderful notes you write?  You touch me there as well.  I understand the depth of what you express there, and, while I believe that is true, I also wonder what you would look like on top of me while I watch you in passion; you are so perfect looking now.
 
Honestly, I am first attracted to who you are; I go over this in my mind on a moment by moment basis.  I am in admiration and respect for who you are after what has, thus far, shown up in your life in the mate department.   Regarding the timing of 'us', I go back to one of my favorite words, serendipity.  It involves the word fortune, providence, fortuity, luck.    If I were to have a vessel that we both loved, a boat or a plane, I believe I would have to call it serendipity, no matter how many others were there with the same name.
 
I love the exhaustion we get to twice daily.   While it is probably not good for our physical health, it is so nourishin
