A Poem I'd like to share...

[Prrkitty]

It is a poem my husband gave me on our 5th wedding anniversary. It says a lot...


***********************************

I will stay in love with you forever...
------------------------------------------------

How can I stay in love
with you forever?

How can we make our relationship into
a lifetime of sharing and joy?

In order to stay in love forever
I must first find the right person to love
and I have, in you.

In order to stay in love forever
we both must understand each other
and ourselves
and we must be completely honest
with each other at all times.

We both must have our own goals and interests
and actively pursue them.

We both must have complete freedom of thought
and we must encourage each other
to follow our dreams.

We must always be fair, kind and supportive
of each other.

We must dedicate ourselves to being
equal partners in all that we feel
and in all that we do.

We must promise each other that
we will always create time
to just appreciate each other and our love
and that we will never be lazy
and take our love for granted

In order for me to stay in love
with you forever
and have a relationship that is
a lifetime of sharing and loving
I must really pledge myself
to this wonderful commitment
and I must really want to stay in love
with you forever
and I do.

The message it protrayed was why I posted it. We've been together for 10 years this month (married 10 years come next July).

May your next decade be as good as the last one. ;)

[Prrkitty]

awwww... thanks Dechy. I can't deny I feel pretty lucky for finding him. Took me 2 times trying ... but hey... learned from the 1st... got it right the 2nd time <EG> :laughing:

[Jemsee]

Nice.
Glad to know love still exists.

[Amber]

Very nice. Once is luck, twice is conicidence, three times is conspiracy. (My spelling's shot to heck but you get the idea.) At least it didn't have to get to the conspiracy stage.

[Prrkitty]

Amber... no kidding ;) The lifes lessons I've learned along my lifes path have been very educational.

Just wish God didn't trust me so much with life ... I get tired of dodging things <LOL>. ;)
