Who am I?
Somebody I trust completely.
Somebody who pushes me.
Somebody who respects me for who I am today.
Somebody who answers every call.
Somebody who can be objective, calm and reasonable, when I can't (or won't)
Somebody who supports me because I am weak.
Somebody who listens to my silly stories, laughs at my bad jokes.
Somebody who wants what I want.
Someone who is unpatronizing.
Someone who will meet me at 0430 to spin or 1800 to run.
Somebody fearless.
Somebody who understands the interconnectivity of all things.
Somebody who will put up with the quirkiness of my neurosis.

Somebody who only complains when absolutely necessary (as last resort).
Somebody responsible.
Somebody cheerful.
Somebody happy.
Somebody who transmits a powerful, pure, positive energy vibe.
Somebody who holds the mirror for me.
A sounding board.
A friend.
A cohort.
A role model.
A teacher, mentor, sage, shaman, saint.
To this childish, uneducated, dense, civilian sinner.
Someone who will tell me when I am wrong, out of line or mistaken.
Someone who thinks there is no drudge in drudgery, no bore in boredom and no mun in mundane.
Someone who can keep things in perspective.
Someone who will remind me that this, in the bigger picture, is peanuts.
Someone to hold my hand.
Someone who has my back.

Someone who can show me courage under fire.
Someone I can be all of the above to.
Unconditionally.
