the way you care
Posted on May 25, 2012 | 0 comments
The way you care about me makes me a different person, a better person. There’s nothing like dealing with the battles of everyday life – some of them winning, some losing – and knowing that I can come home to you. When you wrap your arms around me, I feel safe. When you help me make dinner, I know that I am not alone in adding to the nurturing-care of the household. When you kiss me, I feel – whether win or lose – I am still desirable; and that you still see me as a worthy life-partner.
Do you know what that means?
It means that I’m a little braver, a little more courageous in the face of struggle.
I fight harder for the honor to come home to your heart.
