You were the smile... that helped me to hope...

The one kind word... that held me up...

When I couldn’t believe because of the need...

The struggle to be... someone you might see...

As worthwhile...


You were the dream... the answer for me...

The one who could see... past the insecurity.

The one who understood... the pain inside of me...

The one who seemed to believe...

When I felt like a failure, even to me.


You were the confidence... when I was uncertain.

The serenity... when my heart was suffering.

The intimacy... when I couldn’t connect with people.

The love... when I was afraid of everything.


You were the warmth... when my heart was cold.

The smile... when my frown grew old.

The sun... where rain had left a haze.

The sound... of a heartbeat in the distance...

Revealing to me... all that I had felt, the dreams...

The memories... everything I needed to see...

When I couldn’t let go of the hurt inside me.


You were the gentle touch... when I felt so unloved.

The kind act... that helped me through the worst I’d felt.

The patient heart... when frustrations left me feeling down.

The purest hope... when nothing on earth could have known...

How much had been lost through discouragement.

You were the moment... when God blessed my heart...

With a love that is pure and honest...

A love that fulfills every promise...

Of a love that is unconditional and eternal...

A LOVE that is forever and always.


I love you... even when I can’t say the words.

I love you... even when you can’t see my heart.

I love you... even when everything seems to go wrong.

I love you... even when I am fearful and thoughtless.

I love you... beyond my own ability to love.

I love you... with a love that was sent from above...

A love that defies all the odds... and fulfills...

Even the most empty of hearts.


I love you... in ways that can’t be defined...

Without revealing a feeling that is forever alive...

Always inside... healing, hoping, helping...

Blessing... with a sense of God’s truth protecting...

Our Love... from the destruction that comes from neglecting...

The chance to show each other the love...

That God has given to us.


I love you... and I hope every pleasure in life...

Reminds you exactly why... I treasure this love...

Measured to us... by a heavenly hand...

The only One who really understands...

That Love is the ultimate gift He can give.


Thank you for being my friend...

I love you... for now...

And forever.

God Bless You

Love, trust, and forgiveness are the foundations of marriage.
 
In marriage, many days will bring happiness, while other days may be sad.
But together, two hearts can overcome everything...
In marriage, all of the moments won't be exciting or romantic,
and sometimes worries and anxiety will be overwhelming. 
But together, two hearts that accept will find comfort together.
Recollections of past joys, pains, and shared feelings will be the glue
that holds everything together during even the worst and most insecure moments.
Reaching out to each other as a friend, and becoming
the confidant and companion that the other one needs,
is the true magic and beauty of any two people together.
It's inspiring in each other a dream or a feeling,
and having faith in each other and not giving up...
even when all the odds say to quit.
It's allowing each other to be vulnerable,
to be himself or herself,
even when the opinions or thoughts aren't in total agreement
or exactly what you'd like them to be.
It's getting involved and showing interest in each other,
really listening and being available,
the way any best friend should be.

Exactly three things need to be remembered in a marriage
if it is to be a mutual bond of sharing, caring, and loving throughout life:
love, trust, and forgiveness.

Real Love
 
Love is the moment you see someone and know... I love you
with love that is forever, eternal, unconditional.
Love is the moment you touch a hand in trust... 
Knowing he might hurt you - but not without hurting himself.
Love is the moment you whisper to him and see...
A piece of your heart come apart in his eyes...
A small sacrifice for the joy that you feel when he’s near.

Love is the moment when you open your heart...
Knowing he will break it, but knowing it’s a chance worth taking.
Love is the moment when you feel like you will cry...
If anything bad happened to him... if anything hurt his heart.
Love is the moment when you touch your own heart and know...
He is there with you... forever a smile inside...
Forever a moment worth thinking of...
Forever ... 
Unconditional Love...
Real Love...

I believe it’s a gift from Heaven...
Sent down to give us hope...
Help us to keep the faith...
To feel the amazing grace...
And to know... We are blessed!!!
