My World


My world revolves around the life I have with my wife. I do not think I would like to know any other. It is true, that we have only been together for 2 years or so but it feels as if we have spent the better part of eternity as companions. I mean that in a good way. There are all sorts of wonderful things to say about her. The best compliment that I could give though would have to be attributed to her good natured heart.  There is no better feeling than that of coming home to a woman who never has anything bad to say about anything or anyone.  Her laugh is quite something as well. It has the tendency to stir up a warm mirth and a genuine in smile even when in the worst of moods. I can really never be upset for very long when in her presence and that fact alone is worth its weight in gold.
It’s very interesting to me that when I had seriously started thinking about the type of woman I wanted to marry that I found exactly who I wanted. Don’t get me wrong, I never planned everything out to a tee but when I felt a longing in me stir for companionship a few years ago, I thought very seriously about what I wanted. I am very glad that I did that because there is nothing that I asked for that I didn’t get.  She is the woman of my dreams and I do everything I can do make sure she is aware of that fact.
Just as I am writing this I have thought of another wonderful attribute that she exhibits. She has made life really easy because she seems to never expect too much. There has yet to be an argument or even a quarrel over anything and I will give her the credit for that because of her expectations and her wonderfully patient attitude. I can be stubborn some times, or most times, and I must say that she knows exactly how to handle me which is another great attribute to add to our list.
I have never written something like this before so I do apologize if it seems a bit scrambled. It’s a lesson to me to realize that sometimes we can take the good things in our life for granted. So much so that it can be difficult to put it into words that are coherent enough to be read and understood plainly. It is also something else to realize how often the small things are the most important things. For example, I get the warmest feeling in my heart when I hear the smallest words of praise from my wife. My mood is lifted and my mind is calmed. I feel that I can take on the world with her by my side and that no mountain is too difficult to climb whenever we are together.
There is a saying that I never really understood until I got married. It goes “behind every great man stand a greater woman.” Now I can see the truth to that. I do not believe that I could ever be half the man I am and am becoming without her. There is no end to the motivation that is provided by her company. To end this post I feel to just add the words of one my favorite artists who sings “she gives me presents with her presence alone.” There is nothing better than having the love a good woman to go home to everday.
