Exceptional Life

While I always carry so much thankfulness in my heart for my God and my family, I sometimes just feel a little more overwhelmed by how exceptional my life is than other times.  My husband has the most honest and extaordinary heart in the whole world, and it allows him to love his family so earnestly.  And my son possesses such beauty and happiness that I am in love with the idea that he is the outcome of a love so strong between my husband, God, and I.  How could I have time to dwell in depressoin with such an exceptional life?  I admit that I do like Valentine’s Day, but it is not much different than any other day with my family.

I love being the wife of my husband and the mother of my son.  I never want to fail them because they make my heart stay pure and honest and thankful in all situations.  God gave me a rare love, and I don’t know why He did, but I never want to lose it.  I wish that everyone had what I have.  I know beyond the shadow of a doubt that my husband was meant for me when God shaped him in his mother’s womb, and if I only knew how wonderful he was before I met him, I would have prepared myself to be a better wife, but I am learning more everyday how to love him more.  I hope my son, although he has just begun his life, will one day love his own wife so much that making her happy is what keeps a smile on his face.  When we, in marriage, make it our goals to selflessly please the other, we will both have happiness because we are resting completely in the other’s arms for security.  That means we give up so many of the rights that society tells us we have as a man or woman.  Knowing so much of my husband’s happiness lies in my hands compells me so strongly to fufill his needs completely, and because of the great man God has made him, I don’t need to worry about myself because he also fufills my needs without demand.  The “self” in marriage must dissapear.  Even your unique charicteristics belong to the other with respect.  As a matter of fact, those peculiarities and talents unique to you will grow and blossom with the inspiration of your one true love because you would only have half of the gift without him because he is all of you, and you are all of him.  If you have an artistic side, allow your partner to be your muse, and you will find out you draw, sing, paint, compose, or whatever it is you do better.  Don’t cheat yourself.  Take advantage of the creative energy your husband/wife/lover/best friend can add.  You will create with your soul instead of your physical body, and your heart will live in your art.  And your talents will manifest beautifully.
