Fifty-one years ago we were two young people who came from very different backgrounds and had little in common, but we were committed to forging a future together, come what may. We have learned the truth to King Solomon's words when he wisely said, "When times are good, be happy; but when times are bad, consider; God has made the one as well as the other. Therefore, a man cannot discover anything about his future."-Ecclesiastes 7:14 (NIV).
It has been a wild and wonderful ride and through it all God has been at the wheel. Challenges and blessings too numerous to count have combined to form a firm foundation for a very special relationship and my gratitude is beyond words.
Thank you, my dear husband, for fifty-one wonderful years.
"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails...."- 1 Corinthians 13:4-8a (NIV).
On the health front:
Yesterday the Neupogen injections kicked in before my body realized that it had been assaulted once again by chemotherapy so my energy level was up. This is a day-by-day adventure and yesterday was a pleasant change😊
