give me a second go

all because two people fell in love

I never would have thought I would end up with such an incredible boyfriend. In fact, he’s more than just that. He’s my best friend, my soul mate, lover, and future husband. I want to grow old with him. I used to look for love in all the wrong places. And God showed me him when I least expected it. God blessed me by putting such a godly man in my life.

Conrad Culling, you are the love of my life. I want to grow old with you and sit on our front porch, reading the newspaper and drinking fresh cups of coffee. I want to hold your hand everywhere we go. We have so many places to go. So many beautiful places to see. Thank you for telling me I’m beautiful when I feel the complete opposite. Thank you for always making sure you’re there for me. Thank you for keeping me accountable and helping me to grow in my walk with God. You make me want to be a better person. And I thank you for that. You’re the most incredible gift I have ever received, and ever will receive. I cannot imagine going a day without talking to you. It’s hard enough not being able to see you everyday. But in the end I just remind myself of the important things. Things like: I love you. And I simply cannot fathom living life without you. You’re smart, handsome, charming, and a pure gentleman. You’re always putting others before you, and that is a characteristic I hope to gain from you. I’ve never been treated so incredibly before. Thank you for teaching me so many lessons and thank you for being so understanding with me. I appreciate every single minute you take to drive out and see me. I appreciate the time you take to plan what our next adventures are. Thank you for taking care of me when I got sick. Thank you for calling me and making sure I’m okay. Baby, I love everything about you. Your heart that longs to serve God, your hand that fits perfectly around mine, your arms that wrap around me, your cute little dance moves, your kindness, your creativity, everything. I love it when you tell me stories. I love it when you share your life with me. Let’s go to more art walks and more bike rides. Yeah? I love staring into your eyes and seeing the most beautiful person in the world. You taught me to love and be loved and because of that, I now know the true meaning of love. Your passion, grace, kindness, and forgiveness give me a taste of what our Heavenly Father is like. Thank you for everything, my love. You’re more than I could ever want or deserve. You’re everything.

It’s like forgetting the words to your favorite song.
You can’t believe it; you were always singing along.
It was so easy and the words so sweet.
You can’t remember; you try to move your feet.
It was so easy and the words so sweet.
You can’t remember; you try to feel the beat…

The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation. From the desperate city you go into the desperate country, and have to console yourself with the bravery of minks and muskrats. A steortyped but unconscious despair is concealed even under what are called the games and amusements of mankind. There is no play in them, for this comes after work. But it is a characteristic of wisdom not to do desperate things.

- Henry David Thoreau

"He walked out in the gray light and stood and he saw for a brief moment the absolute truth of the world. The cold relentless circling of the intestate earth. Darkness implacable. The blind dogs of the sun in their running. The crushing black vacuum of the universe. And somewhere two hunted animals trembling like ground-foxes in their cover. Borrowed time and borrowed world and borrowed eyes with which to sorrow it."

Wrecked, solitary, here.: Psalm 116:

wreckedsolitaryhere:

I love the LORD, for he heard my voice;
he heard my cry for mercy.
Because he turned his ear to me,
I will call on him as long as I live.

The cords of death entangled me,
the anguish of the grave came over me;
I was overcome by distress and sorrow.

Then I called on the name of the LORD:…

starswithplanets:

I wonder how it all got started, this business
about seeing your life flash before your eyes
while you drown, as if panic, or the act of submergence,
could startle time into such compression, crushing
decades in the vice of your desperate, final seconds.

“In a city, unhappy people breathe much more freely than in the country. A man may live a hundred years in a city without the fact ever once dawning upon him that he has been dead and rotten for ever so long.”
