Sonnet 116

Let me not to the marriage of true minds

Admit impediments. Love is not love

Which alters when it alteration finds,

Or bends with the remover to remove:

O no! it is an ever-fixéd mark

That looks on tempests and is never shaken;

It is the star to every wandering bark,

Whose Worth's unknown, although his height be taken.

Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks

Within his bending sickle's compass come;

Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,

But bears it out even to the edge of doom:

If this be error and upon me proved,

I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

~William Shakespeare~

"Wedded love is founded on esteem."
- Elijah Fenton

"Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh." Genesis 2:24

My dear friend Julia was married to a truly wonderful man last Friday evening. It was a beautiful wedding....I'm so thankful I know her...and Lee....They're the kind of people that make the world go 'round for me. Their example of true love, commitment and dedication to God encourages me every day. I love them both so much. :)

Hello it's me, may I come over....

You know how time does that funny thing of running away on you? Well, since it's been almost a month since I last posted I think I'll just sit down and write one!

Priorities are so important- It's why we do what we do. When we're busy and working on so many things, it's easy to be caught up and fail to do the important things. Like studying God's word. Praying. Spending quality time with family. Never be to busy for God.

A couple weeks ago we had a huge garage sale. It was really quite fun! I enjoyed seeing all the people go through and look at stuff, and talk among themselves....People are so interesting...why do we do the things we do? What are we telling the world every day by the way we talk, act, dress and places we go? It's incredible to me to think of how many people see us in public just going shopping, or to the grocery store, or even a garage sale!! It's thoughts to think, aright!

I know this is short and random.....I'm hoping to post more later! I hope you have a great weekend! Be safe and have fun! :)
