In-between "me" and "him and then the "us" was a time where our lives merged. The first memories of us as us. This is a sacred, living, continued stage that should take you "there" as often as possible.

Good Things Run Wild

"We must bless without wanting to manipulate. Without insisting that everything be straightened out right now. Without insisting that our truth be known.  This means simply turning whoever it is we need to bless over to God, knowing that God’s powerful love will do what our own feeble love or lack of it won’t." (Madeleine L’Engle)

Good Things Run Wild

I cringe a little when "people" insist we need to be dreaming BIG. In relation to size, only. “The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” (Eleanor Roosevelt) Some GOOD dreams may have large ramifications and ideas, and that is beautiful. But other good dreams are deliciously simple. Dream well!

On paying attention and being grateful! "It all matters. That someone turns off the lamp, says hello to the invalid, listens to the repeated tale, folds the abandoned laundry, plays the game fairly, acknowledges help, gives credit, says goodnight, resists temptation, wipes the counter... What is most beautiful, is least acknowledged. What is worth dying for is barely noticed." L. McBride

On lines from chapter 29 of "The Screwtape Letters" by CS Lewis": He sees as well as you do that courage is not simply one of the virtues, but the form of every virtue at the testing point. A chastity or honesty or mercy which yields to danger will be chaste or honest or merciful only on conditions. Pilate was merciful until it became risky.”
