I no longer miss the making love, the holding hands, the kissing or the compliments. I no longer miss the dating, the laughter or the unexpected gifts. I no longer miss the phone calls, the text messages or the personal greeting cards. I no longer hold any could have, would have, or should haves. Good , bad and oftentimes indifferent, I am so very grateful for each experience and every encounter. The short love affairs and long term significant others. Even in my naivety and sin nature, it all led me to here. This beautiful totally surrendered, contentment beyond belief, and free to be me place. All of them brought me to Him. The Lover of my soul who knows about all those prior relationships, and in no way whatsoever holds my past against me. He and He only has promised to love all of me and will not leave. In all my imperfections, and all their broken promises, His perfect love completes me and has promised to stay.
