love

I think about a lot of things. Sometimes I think too much.

Recently I've been thinking about love & marriage. I think I knew my husband pretty well when we decided to get married. I think I loved him a lot. It amazes me, though, how much more I love him. How unbelievably dear he is to me. How incomplete I feel when he's not around. How much more fun I have with him than anyone else.

I've also been thinking recently about the frailty of life. A friend's husband died at the age of 50. We're not that far off from 50. I know that heaven holds better things than this life. But it makes me very afraid to lose him.

Car wrecks. Cancer or other illnesses. Stray bullets.

We have no guarantee that we'll have tomorrow.

Tell the one you love how much you love them today. Hold him close, listen to his heartbeat, thank the Lord for him, and tell him what he means to you.
