To sink down to your lowest, to then rise higher than you were before, all while unknowingly seeing the broken become mended; That is the beauty of His grace.

“You walked into my life of late nights and broken promises, and filled it with warm hands and honest smiles. Before you, love was an unfulfilled emotion I grasped at from time to time, never quite catching it. I was constantly sipping from a bottle of heartache and betrayal that I became numb to the emptiness of my soul. You became my saving grace. Hope became a word with new meaning while you reminded me that there are still good people in this world. Because of you, I now know what real love looks like. And wow, what a pretty picture we paint.”

“I hope that one day your daughter will go through your old pictures from high school and stumble across one of me and you, and I hope that she notices the worn out edges and my love letter to you on the back. I hope she asks you who I am, and when she does, I hope you say my name with a quiver in your voice.”

“You rarely cross my mind these days. Even when I see a truck that looks like your old one; the one that you picked me up for our first date in years ago, the one with a thousand memories, smiles, and tears; I don’t bat an eye. In my conscious mind you are just a distant speck. Like the faintest star in the sky, you know it is there but you can barely see it… Just a twinkle compared to the vast brightness of the stars that shine with glory. That’s how I feel about you these days. You’re just a speck in my memory. A gentle tug at my heart when I hear our song, but certainly no tears. You see, I’ve moved on just like you told me to. I listened to your advice and I’ve finally let my heart open to someone else. I haven’t told him about you, or about us. But the truth is… if he ever listens to me while I mumble breathlessly in my sleep, he would know your name. You may be dead to me while I go on about my day, but my god how you are alive in my dreams.”

“Things I’ve loved this year - a new start in a new home - the way his eyes change from green to blue - the sound of children laughing on a bad day - knowing His grace covers my imperfections - seeing my dog waiting in the window after a long day of work - being closer to the stars in the mountains - apple picking in the orchards - the safety I feel in his arms - realizing what’s meant to be will be”

“I’ve come to find that there are different kinds of love in every relationship we have. There is always the first, then the one that leaves you feeling empty, and the one that was only meant for a pick-me-up. Then there’s the kind that you try to hold onto but you know it just doesn’t feel right. But the best one of all, the one worth all the heartaches before it, is the one where you know you are finally home.”
