Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking outward together in the same direction. ~Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Wind, Sand and Stars, 1939, translated from French by Lewis Galantière
Last night me and my honey were with friends and some time was spent reminiscing (the men) of course, on their past, the women loved and lost and why they made the choices they did then. All I could say is that for ALL of us men and women of God is that...."sometimes our clouds hang low an we can hardly see the road" LOL
In any case, the time came when we were able to reminisce about our love story and how WE came to be. It is so important that we never forget what we love about our mates, how we came to love our mates, the journey of your love.
It is important to do this because as you begin to relive the story, you will see how God truly ordained your union, IF he has ordained your union. For us, there are many occurrences that affirmed this for us; however I just realized this weekend this small tidbit..
When I expected to Joe to propose to me, I wore the dress I wanted to have on with my hair done and all. In fact, I tried to be prepared but after a month passed and he didn't do it, I stopped. Well how about, the day he proposed, when my nails and hair were NOT done. LOL I still had on the dress I wanted to wear. WOW.....
