Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are…
Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect Tomorrow.
One day I shall dig my nails into the earth,
or bury my face in my pillow,
or stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky
and want, more than all the world, your return.

Thirty Years Ago Today...

Thirty years ago today, I was "hanging out" at the mall with a girlfriend.  We went into a pet shop to kill time.  There was a really cute guy there, a really cute guy holding a snake.  My first words to him were, "get away from me".  (I've never been a snake person.)

Thankfully, he didn't.

Instead, he asked me out.

Although it wasn't always smooth sailing from there, the rest, as they say, is history.  Our history.

I'm really thankful for this guy.

Impressive that you can remember the first time you met! I thought I was good because I can remember the day HB first asked me out on a date (18th June 1990) but I can't remember he first time we met. Happy anniversary!

This made me chuckle! It takes a strong man to pursue a woman after she tells him to get away. LOL!
