A Moment in Time
A moment.
Frozen in time.
Suspended,
Hanging by a thread.
The clock on the wall
Stopped ticking off
The seconds.
And the whole world stood still.
The ground shook
The sun shined brighter
And the world stopped spinning.
A moment.
Frozen in time.
On that day
When you walked into my life.
And I looked at you.
And…
For the first time,
When I looked into your eyes,
I saw my future there.
Jeff,
from the moment I met you, you captivated, challenged, encouraged, supported, &
inspired me, & I aspire to do the same for you. You are a soldier, a father, a good man. I accept you as God’s gift & choose to
love you unconditionally, for unconditional love cannot be swayed by time &
circumstance. Unconditional “love bears all things, believes all things, hopes
all things, endures all things” & no matter what imperfections exist in us,
we choose to love each other anyway. Everything within me, from the analytical
thoughts to the goosebumps & butterflies, tells me it is right to commit my
life to building a life with you & Kaitlyn.
In today’s world of multiple priorities & responsibilities, I
promise to you to commit myself to keeping our relationship a priority &
promise you a commitment of my time, energy, heart & spirit. I vow to
love you in good times & in bad, when life seems easy or hard, when our
love is simple or an effort. I promise
to love you without reservation, comfort you in times of distress, & always
be open & honest with you. I choose to spend today, & all of my
tomorrows with you. Whatever lies ahead,
good or bad, we face each experience together. All experiences are part of a journey;
a journey I would like to take with you & Kaitlyn. For every moment & every breath, I will be
by your side. As I look back at our past
with appreciation, I look forward to our future in anticipation with you…a
journey that begins with “I do.”
