opens the door to new beginnings.

Do real life people actually fall in love
with the idea of being in love?

They design all the aspects of their married life.

and vow never to criticize their nature -
the essence that makes them uniquely themselves.

Give thanks for the rainbows, for the butterflies,
for all God's creatures - large and small,
for the bright blue sky and the soft fog and the gentle rain,
for the tree veiled in the season's first frost,
for the baby's laugh,
for the touch of a hand and the whispered "I love you."
