He’s been going through my old journals, notes and poetry. I guess looking to find proof of something????? SO….my curiosity has been peaked, and i decided to drudge through some of the “old stuff” myself. The following is a “majority” of my thoughts that he found:

“Lavishing Love on Him”
I’ve been so preoccupied with the kids, I’ve not been giving enough attention to my hubby. He works so hard. I wish he wouldn’t drink so much…..but i guess i understand why. Sometimes i catch myself getting angry with him , and distancing myself just to punish him……this is sooo unfair and immature on my part. So today i “touched” him every chance i got. His response was that he missed having my full attention. Gosh….had it been that long since i showed him any affection…..my poor hunny. Tonight this is my prayer: Dear God, help me to respect and reverence my husband…help me to always notice, regard, honor, prefer, and esteem him. May i always praise him, love and admire him exceedingly. May his heart trust in me confidently. May he never have need of another. I PROMISE TO COMFORT, ENCOURAGE, AND DO HIM GOOD AS LONG AS THERE IS LIFE WITHIN ME. – teresa
IM DYING TO KNOW IF HE FOUND WHAT HE WAS LOOKING FOR. 10 YEARS LATER…….I WROTE “SEVEN TIMES SEVENTY SEVEN” -jrn
PS….the fact that i promised is tearing me up!
