December Wedding Anniversary 2012
THE FIRE STILL BURNS...
“And the two shall be one flesh so then they are no more two, but one
flesh.” Mark 10:8
In our one and only lifetime, there is one great love that comes
along. Some say that fate brings a man and woman together or that time and
chance present the condition that forms this passion. I say that God has our
‘oneness’ planned from the beginning. If we follow God’s leading, this person
chosen by God, is destined to be our soul mate through life’s journey, this
small space in time, our one great and passionate love for all time.
In one sense, we choose our destiny in connubial love, to allow
the spark to become our great and consuming passion, or to allow it to die
through lack of nurturing. We contribute to its increase or to its decline, if
it will survive to the end of life.
We were two when love was
young, all fire and passion. Years together smoothed the rough edges, softened the
prickly places, weaving the threads together into one strong cord.
Our lives became a
tapestry of moments, days and years. The flame strengthened, blending the color
and shape of two lives into one burning fire, one steady light, one single
existence without end.

From my wedding box
Didn't think I could still get into my wedding dress did you?
The fabric is still lovely, a heavy rose petal embossed satin. My college best friend made the dress and was a bridesmaid in the wedding
No one can fill his shoes. These days we are both putting our feet up and so blessed with many hands to help with the work, God has been good
