from this book:
THE SPIRIT OF LOVE
I am the excitement at the thought of you.
I am the sparkle in your eyes when you look at each other.
I am the electricity in your touches, tickles, and caresses.
I am the ecstasy of intimacy.
I am the intimacy of afterglow.
When miscommunication causes tempers to flare, I am the balm that calms the hurts.
I am the determination to work through past hurts to free you to love now and into your future.
I am also the commitment to try again when the going gets touch.
When fatigue or busy-ness stretches the relationship, I am the kindling that re-ignites the flames of love.
I am the humility that allows you to say you're sorry.
I am the graciousness that accepts an apology.
I am the Life-blood of the relationship.
Throughout your life together, I will ebb and flow like a creek meandering along its bed.
Times of drought may be followed by flash floods.
When the relationship feels dry, look to the Supreme Rain-Maker for refreshment. ...more
