Someone to Guide Me Through

Rose-cloud

I was stressing out about something, I don't remember what, something unimportant now but was sapping my energy then. I was frustrated, poor French Husband became my focal point, though he wasn't the reason for my attitude he certainly was getting my grief as I barked up his tree.

Then something in his eye calmed me. Thankfully some small goodness in me stopped and held his gaze. In that brief second I caught the lifeline back to the real shore of my being.

I asked for a hug. Sounds simple, sounds corny. But that hug soothed my rough edges, putting me back on track.

That is what I love about him he takes my thorns and allows me to bloom.

    We are blessed every day to have wonderful husbands and great marriages. It is a gift that not everyone gets! Have a great weekend Corey AND Jann.

  9. There is a mirror in our kitchen, as you know. Today, while trying to make a picnic–while fielding a series of pertinent questions from my family, I caught sight of a scowl on my face. Later, walking arm and arm with my daughter, on the way to our picnic, I told her I never ever wanted to see that face again! I think we all need a mirror in which to see the way we look when we talk to a loved one, or to anyone. I want my face to look peaceful, always. And yet each time I see the reflection in my computer tablet, my brows are knit so tightly. I then make a conscious effort to relax. (maybe I just need glasses?) =-) Loved your story and could so relate.

  10. You are beautiful

  11. The healing power of touch, right? My husband and I practice the 30 second hug sometimes, especially during times of stress. It is awkward at first but very powerful in many ways.
    How is Paris? So excited about our upcoming trip to YOUR gorgeous apartment in Paris in July!!
