My dearest,

There are 1,000 stars in the sky. Or perhaps 1,000,000 stars, perhaps many times that.

It doesn’t matter.

We aren’t trying to count the stars. We aren’t trying to wish for fate’s favour. We are simply here, being together, staying together, enjoying the silence and the world and not needing to say a word.

We don’t need all the stars in the sky or the words in all the books. We understand each other, perhaps better than we understand ourselves, and that is the world, and that is our world.

Our world that we build and that we cherish. Our world that is more beautiful than all the stars in the sky. Our world that is more meaningful than all the words in all the books.

We don’t need to count 1,000 stars, just our blessings.

Yours, ever and always.
