Twisted Love

 

Bonjour mes amis!
                      Well peeps, Valentines day approaches and today I am going to talk about love. This tree when I first saw it reminded me of my husband and I. We are twisted around each-other and no-one knows where we begin our where we end, our love is boundless throughout space and time.

                  Story time: As most of you know my husband I met in the military, we were a few months shy of 19. My husband and I really didn't know each-other well but one day, one moment, on second in time changed all that. I just found out that the man I was dating was an officer, married, and with kids. I was so crushed. First off, married? I will not be a home wrecker to anyone, so I dropped him like a hot potato but it hurt nevertheless. When I got back to my dorm there were a few men playing hackey sack and I sat down next to an Airman who was watching. I had no clue who this guy was, but I broke into to tears and laid my head on his shoulder. I figured he probably thought I was nuts, but let me tell you it was quite the opposite. He put his arm around me and said "thats o.k Lady it will be just fine".  I was a damsel in distress, and he was my knight in battle dress uniform. Little did he know he would be saving me throughout a lifetime.
          I then began to cry even harder because I had recognized his voice, I had been dreaming for the past few weeks of a man who called me Lady and who would keep me safe. Do I remember the next few days that we were constantly together, no not really. Time tends to make you forget the little things of life, but Tom still calls me Lady and I still see him in those BDU's thats all that matters. Time has changed us from those young kids, but true love doesn't see those extra pounds or wrinkles that grow each passing year. When all was said and done we had dated for about 2 months and were married on  September 12, 1992.
                   Years later I still think I got the better end of the deal, in this marriage. My poor husband has lived with a crazy women for the past 18 yrs and not once has ever complained. He has held me up when I lost a baby, he has held me down when in a moment of madness I lost my mind, He has dragged me to do something that scared me to death, he has supported me when all others have ran. That man has been on his knee in battle for me and my depression everyday since I have been diagnosed with it. He has been through war and has won and I am sure that man will be fighting for me in the future. He is the brave one!

                  O.k Peeps do you feel this way about your spouse? Does Love just mean a word to you? or is it an action. Do you just co-exist in the same house with each other? Does the kids, money, and jobs get in the way?
                  Fight for your love peeps. Don't throw this precious bonding away on things that don't last. Begin today and show your love by sacrificing your precious time, to lavish it on your beloved. Don't go chasing dreams that will only end up destroying you and your most precious gift, your spouse.


HAPPY VALENTINES DAY Thomas. I love you forever and throughout time. Our love is forever ageless. Love your Lady
