Two Perfect Days

My two perfect days in 10 years would look calm and productive. I would wake up at the same time every day next to the love of my life. Everything is all set for me to go to work. I made sure I picked out all my clothes the day before. I eat a quick breakfast before I drive to my workplace. I am greeted by familiar faces. Everyone is kind and understanding. I feel fulfilled at my job since I am using my creativity to help people. I am able to engage with the customer/patient(?) on an emotional level. After work there will be an employee get-together at a restaurant. We enjoy each other's company in a work free setting. A good meal with good company is refreshing after a hard day's work. We say our goodbyes as we all go on our own weekends. I drive home and greet my partner. We tell each other about our day and laugh together while we cuddle and unwind. I take the time to journal my thoughts and feelings before I head to bed.  I make sure to go through my whole night routine before falling asleep. 

In the morning, I get ready for a date with my partner. Today we have a picnic planned. I dress up in clothes that make me feel like a fairy. We pack up our favorite food and drinks to take with us. I brought my picnic basket and my film camera. We go on a brisk walk to my favorite spot under the tree. I lay out the picnic blanket and we start to munch on our food. We relax in the shade, listen to music we both love, and take cute pictures of each other. We talk about everything under the sun but especially how we feel about various things. I love talking about emotions with them. We get to know each other better even after all these years together. After our cute little picnic,  we come home to our cat that we love to spoil. I take more photos of my love and my cat. We put on a heartwarming movie as we cuddle on the couch. I go to the kitchen to cook us some popcorn before the movie starts. We are both in tears by the end of the film. We start getting ready for bed together. Even the most mundane of tasks is a good time when I’m with my partner. I take the time to journal about my lovely day. I want to make sure I remember all the little details. We both tuck into bed and stay awake for a little longer talking about our future, our hopes, our fears. Conversations like this make me feel closer to my partner. We talk like this in each other's arms until we both fall asleep.
