Choosing

 

Do you know what it’s like?

To wait a lifetime for Mr. Right?

 

To wonder if it will happen for you?

 

Do you know what it’s like to decide?

To decide that love is worth it?

 

To choose to give of yourself… for better or for worse?

 

To allow yourself to hope?

 

Do you know what it is like?  To give yourself permission to be loved?

 

To choose joy, no matter your circumstances?

 

 

Do you know what it is like to marry your best friend?

In sickness and in health?

Through awful words like

prognosis

cancer

surgery

drugs

radiation

chemo

 

Thank you my sweet friends, for the gift of witnessing that love wins.
