The key to love is understanding…
The ability to comprehend not only the spoken word
But those unspoken gestures,
The little things that say so much by themselves.

Reading: “Love is Giving”
Thursday, December 3rd, 2009
Posted in Readings
I think this is a beautiful reading that sums up what it is to be married – to take the rough with the smooth, to enjoy life’s pleasures and suffer its pains together, and to always be there for one another.
Love is giving, not taking,
Mending, not breaking,
Trusting, believing,
Never deceiving,
Patiently bearing
And faithfully sharing
Each joy, every sorrow,
Today and tomorrow.Love is kind, understanding,
But never demanding.
Love is constant, prevailing,
Its strength never failing.
A promise once spoken
For all time unbroken,
Love’s time is foreverAnon

Reading: “A Walled Garden”
Friday, May 29th, 2009
Posted in Readings
‘Your marriage’, he said, ‘should have within it, a secret and protected place open to you alone. Imagine it to be a walled garden, entered by a door to which only you hold the key.
‘Within this garden you will cease to be a mother, father, employee, homemaker or any other of the roles which you fulfil in daily life.
Here you are yourselves two people who love each other.
Here you can concentrate on one another’s needs.‘So take my hand and let us go back to our garden.
The time we spend together is not wasted but invested.
Invested in our future and the nurture of our love.’Anon
I think this particular reading is so appropriate for today’s hectic world, when we have so many responsibilities and so little time…

Reading: “These I Can Promise”
Tuesday, April 21st, 2009
Posted in Readings
I cannot promise you a life of sunshine;
I cannot promise riches, wealth, or gold;
I cannot promise you an easy pathway
That leads away from change or growing old.But I can promise all my heart’s devotion;
A smile to chase away your tears of sorrow;
A love that’s ever true and ever growing;
A hand to hold in yours through each tomorrow.Mark Twain
