Goodness is what I hoped for in a relationship. A goodness that makes the strain and stress that sneaks into any relationship melt and mend.
Melt and mend...
No marriage is as easy as happy ever after.
Loving has its unmarked roads, and some of those bumps can really kick butt and throw one off course.
What keeps us together? What keeps me believing in the road under our feet?
Faith.
Forgiveness.
A willingness.
Two hearts beating in rhythm that cannot be controlled.
a simpleness, a breath of fresh air, those little things that make my heart leap unexpectedly. Laughter. A hand to hold.
Trust.
Melt and mend.
Melting over me
warm and complete.
Ah the ease of loving, and what keeps me close.
And when it isn't so....
Faith,
forgiveness,
and a willingness.
And when he wants to do the scary stuff like fly that Ultra Lite, or worse wants to go caving, or when he stays silent too long, or when he becomes a Drama King over nothing, or when he takes hours to park the car... things that drive me nuts.
I
count to ten.
count the blessings.
count the pills that I am.
Melt and mend.
I wish loving were so for everyone.
"God, why not?"
Why not?
On the road I
grabbed his butt and squeezed.

Thank you to the universe around and within.
May it be this loving for my entire life.
