Love Happens

The amazing thing. Yes the amazing thing. The amazing thing how out of nowhere love strikes and cuts through the darkness showing the way. When you feel it touch you, grab it and never let go. The ride of the arrow is one you don’t want to miss.

    I waited for that arrow for a long time, and in the mean time, I was struck by many impostor arrows that made my heart bleed. Then one day, after my heart was healed and strong, an arrow came out of nowhere, struck me and there was no turning back. That day the page was turned and my life went to a new chapter, where I am grounded me in love.
    Each day I think: You never know when you’re going to turn the corner and bump into the rest of your life!

  15. I love my family.
    I love birds.
    I love to make art.
    I love good food and wine.
    I love that today is Friday !!!!!!!!!!!!

  16. Love is the hardest and easiest thing I’ve ever done.

  17. Very interesting, Cory, that I was just cuddling with my husband last night talking about this very thing. How his love broke through and set me free and changed my life.

  18. Love is…hanging onto that arrow! Smart lady~

  19. You are such a wise person Corey.
    Hold onto the arrow, and hold tight, as it is sometimes a bumpy ride.
