Band of Gold....


My eyes can no longer see the phrase so lovingly inscribed in the tiny band of gold, but it matters not, as it’s eternally inscribed within the confines of my heart.

“Your heart is my loves keeper.” It reads… these words written by the love of my life…..an inspiration that I still live by today.

 Love in its splendor and magnificence while beautiful, is not enough to provide the longevity we seek. The complexities of life have a way of be challenging our loyalty and attempting to disillusion even the most loving of couples. But, all is not lost.  True love is resilient; filled with honesty and radiance capable of providing comfort and light even in the darkest of times….but true love takes effort

                                             What I've learned…..

The responsibility of “keeping each other’s love within your heart’s” is sacred, and should be treated as such…..so today,  I will leave you with loving advice that’s withstood the test of time………

4” Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.” 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

    I will never tire of reading this passage from Corinthians. I've been married now for over 30 years and could not have done it without attendance to what is said here and a whole lot of grace.

    Love your introduction and your line "it’s eternally inscribed within the confines of my heart." It sets the mood for the entire piece- so beautiful!
