Our Marriage, Our Dance
31.7.10
Sometimes the rhythms of life are soft and easy, the moon is full and the stars shine over us with gladness; it seems that holding hands is the easiest thing to do, and we found a place to give us long kisses; but there are times when the rhythms of life are not easy to follow; the clouds seem to hide the moon's brightness and the stars seem to be too dim; we don't feel the music, we cannot even hear it, and our skins barely touch each other's.
Yet, we must learn to follow this rhythm too because it is part of our life.
When you don't feel like dancing, light a candle, find his skin, start the dance, give your man good and reach for his hand.
Marriage is learning how to dance the different rhythms of life. Take off your shoes and dare to dance no matter where you are.

Becky, how beautiful! It's so true! A great uncle used to say that a key ingredient in marriage is stubborness to keep reaching out to each other!
"Marriage is learning how to dance the different rhythms of life. Take off your shoes and dare to dance no matter where you are." Amen!
I pray you have a fabulous weekend!
Thank you, Becky! This is so beautiful and so very true. "When you don't feel like dancing, light a candle, find his skin, start the dance..." and we can do this because God is the fuel of our love!
This is a great post and a wonderful song! Love and blessings to you and your husband!
"Reach for the hand." Oh yes, Becky. Your words ring true and solid!

Petra, without God, marriage is void and impossible. He is the only One who can help us dance and reach to each other.
