A BLOG ABOUT LOVE

I am so freaking in love with this blog. I stumbled upon it a few weeks ago. I don’t even remember how. But let me tell you—SO in love. Not even really with the entire blog because I’m not a big fashiony/photography person. BUT, I am a beautiful courtship that turns into a beautiful marriage type of person.

For real.

Let me explain. The woman who writes this blog, Mara, and her husband, Danny, are total rockstars. They had both previously been through very emotional and rough divorces (aren’t all divorces emotional and rough?) when a mutual friend mention to them that they should meet. The friend passed along, to each of them, the other person’s e-mail address.  That started a process of long, heart felt e-mails where they spoke openly about the darkest hours of their lives, what they have learned from it, and the love that they feel God has for them and how it has changed their life. They didn’t exchange phone numbers UNTIL THEY MET! They spent the first (three) weeks of their relationship exchanging these life changing e-mails. They’re Mormon, but that doesn’t matter. I’m Catholic, they’re Mormon…who cares. They have some serious love for Our Father, and they spend their time working in their church and spreading love around. It’s so great.

It’s been an absolute joy to read how these people came out of an extremely hard time in their lives, relied on their faith and the love of God, and found a love that is so beautiful it makes me happy just reading about it.

Seriously…I get so excited when I see another “Love Story” post on this blog. I check for them all the time! 

Mara and Danny have been going through their old e-mails and picking some out for their (lucky!) readers to see. So at this point in their story, they haven’t even met. Yet, they are so in love. It’s amazing. 

You need to go read this! If I were you…I’d click on the link at the bottom of this posting and scroll all the way to the bottom and read their awesome story.

spiritualinspiration: No matter what you are facing in life today, you can have faith that God will come through for you. You can trust that His Word is always true. In Psalm 32, David calls God his “hiding place.” In other words, not only can you choose to trust God in the midst of your difficulty; you can actually hide in Him and find rest for your soul. When the circumstances of life seem to be overwhelming, choose to trust that God is ordering your steps. Find security in Him knowing that He’s making your crooked places straight and leading you into the everlasting life He has prepared for you!

I’m kind of obsessed with this song tonight. :)

“I belong with you, you belong with me. You’re my sweetheart. I belong you, you belong me. You’re my sweet.”

To My Future Husband:

tomyfuturespouse:

Please don’t like every single one of my statues, comment on all of my pictures, or make everything you post on Facebook lovey dovey. But an occasional, “I love you” on my wall will make my day. Promise. And I’ll keep it low key, too.

“You must know… surely, you must know it was all for you. You are too generous to trifle with me. I believe you spoke with my aunt last night, and it has taught me to hope as I’d scarcely allowed myself before. If your feelings are still what they were last April, tell me so at once. My affections and wishes have not changed, but one word from you will silence me forever. If, however, your feelings have changed, I will have to tell you: you have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love, I love, I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on.”

I’m pretty sure my mom reminded me of these five sayings every time I went ANYWHERE until I moved to college.

LONDON. <3. My favorite place in the world. For my long term life, the only person I can picture myself living besides New Orleans is London. And even if I could NEVER afford to live in South Ken, I’d move to Knightsbridge in a second.
