Laying in Jeremiah's arms was paradise.  Making love with him was heaven on earth.  Sighing in sheer contentment, she was spent.  Here she was, at 50 years of age, head over heels in love, really for the first time in her life.  She had dreamed of finding a lover, best friend and soul mate ever since she was a young woman.  Now, here she was, she had found him.<br/><br/>They were so in sync, that there were times she swore they could read each other's thoughts.  It was freaky, in a very good way.  How wonderful to find a love like this, here in this place, at this time in their lives.<br/><br/>As she listened to his words telling her of his profession and declaration of his love for her, her heart beat a little faster.  "Now, why would that scare me, Jeremiah?  We are not teenagers, we have lived a lifetime, alone and lonely.  I love you too.  It seems almost surreal that we would find each other here.  I'm so glad we have, though.<br/><br/>She sighed as he kissed her, and in that kiss she felt all the love she had been waiting all her life for!
