Cooler than the flip side of my pillow, that's right.

"Don't know how I lived without you
'Cause every time that I get around you
I see the best of me inside your eyes
You make me smile"  ~Uncle Kracker - Smile

 This month marks the ninth year my fiance and I have been together and I could not be  happier with the direction our relationship is headed.  Looking back over the past nine years, it amazes me to see how far we've come, and all that has changed.  I am in the process of planning my wedding, albeit stressful, I am over come with an indescribable feeling of joy. 

Together, we have endured some immense obstacles, that at times felt unconquerable.  As luck would have it, we made it through all of the ups and downs this life has thrown our way.
Life has a way of surprising you and tricking you into things you never would have chosen on your own.  For this, I am thankful for all that I have in my life and all that I will have in the future.  I am thankful that God has allowed me such happiness and I will continue to appreciate each and every experience I am given.  


I started this blog so I could sort out the noise in my head when it becomes too loud to sort out alone.  I will leave you today, and every day in the future with a quote that means something to me, and hope that it will mean something to you as well. 

"Your life and my life flow into each other as wave flows into wave, and unless there is peace and joy and freedom for you, there can be no real peace or joy or freedom for me. To see reality—not as we expect it to be but as it is—is to see that unless we live for each other and in and through each other, we do not really live very satisfactorily; that there can really be life only where there really is, in just this sense, love. ~Frederick Buechner"
