Two

Dear Future Wife,

I've been spending a lot of time trying to figure out what to say. Words simply cannot describe how grateful I am to have you in my life. I keep coming back to a number... Two.

February is the 2nd month... It's the first prime number, and the only even prime number... The two of us... two years... two...

The Chinese believe two is a lucky number because "good things come in pairs". Taurus is the 2nd sign of the Zodiac... a sign that has importance to you. In Tarot, the number two is the card of the High Priestess which symbolizes wisdom and good judgement. The Yin and Yang keep balance together... Even Judaism and Christianity recognize that two is a pretty powerful number.. God had Noah put two of each animal on the ark... Two challahs are placed on the table for every Shabbat meal... Then there's Ecclesiastes 4:9-12:

"Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up, but pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves."

In Numerology, 2 is the number of the of the divine feminine - the sacred mother. Her strength and power... Sometimes people will be amazed by the leadership and decisive actions of the number 1, but the 1 relies on the clever and insightful advice of its greatest ally: the number 2.

I hope to always have you as my greatest ally, and dispenser of clever and insightful advice. I hope to always be the same for you.
