Love can never grow old.
Locks may lose their brown and gold.
Cheeks may fade and hollow grow.
But the hearts that love will know,
never winter’s frost and chill,
summer’s warmth is in them still.

* i am afraid *

That one day you wont be there.
That I wont wake up and hear your voice or see your face
I do not look forward to that day. I am afraid

I should be happy that there is today
to be with you, to laugh with you
to feel your arms holding me tight
I love today, but I am afraid

{ mr.perfect }

This does not mean that my Mr. Perfect is "perfect", just that he will be perfect for me.  I think if you are going to seriously look for Mr. Right, you definitely need to know what you are looking for. Make a list of traits you know that YOUR Mr. Right MUST have, and everything else will fall into place, if it is right of course. You must set some guidelines as to how many infractions you will allow for your Mr. Right to make before he is considered Mr. Wrong. If it's not going to upset the cosmic balance of nature then it is probably ok to let slide. Just don't let too many of them slide or you could just be settling for any ol "joe". Below is MY List of what the IDEAL man for me should have to start out with. . . . I know there is no magical formula to finding the perfect guy, just let your heart guide you. I am a TRUE ROMANTIC (hence the "hopeless romantic" part of my blog), and so I'm always listening to my heart rather my head. Sometimes the head isn't always on straight, due to broken hearts or misguided relationships that didn't end so great. When it comes to love, let your heart guide you ...just make sure it's open before you begin your journey.

My list for Mr. Right:

  • Being A Christian
  • Honest
  • Sense of humor
  • Passionate
  • Respects others
  • Caring
  • Ability to love and be loved
  • Stable (mentally, physically, emotionally - doesn't need drugs to make him "happy")
  • Thinks of others first
  • Not easily angered
  • Loves baseball
  • Likes to spend time together as well as apart
  • Loves the outdoors
  • Is protective, but not controlling
  • Has a romantic side
  • remembers the small things
  • is ok with PDA
  • has a positive outlook
  • is not in it just for self-gratification
  • looks good in uniform (not a must have, just icing on the cake)
There are more qualities I look for, but most of them are more about personality rather than something tangible, so I will know it when I feel it.

In other words ......


Hopefully, there is someone out there and that I haven't scared him off just yet . . . .  :)

Thank you for reading and I hope you find YOUR Mr. Right! . Take care!

[ .this.life.we.call.road. ]

what do you find on your life's road?
sometimes what we find is not necessarily what we are looking for.
is this bad? not always, usually the unexpected things we find are good.
I prefer the unexpected.

{ .desires.of.the.heart. }

.¸¸.•♥•.¸¸♥  Desires of the Heart ♥•.¸¸.•♥•.¸¸.


Psalm 37:3-7 (New King James Version)

3. Trust in the LORD, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness.
4. Delight yourself also in the LORD, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
5. Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass.
6. He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, And your justice as the noonday.
7. Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for Him; Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass.

♥•.¸¸.•♥•.¸¸♥.♥•.¸¸. •♥•.¸¸.•♥•.¸¸♥.♥•.¸¸. •♥•.¸¸♥

Below was taken from Roy Lessin - Meet Me in the Meadow

Here are some things we can learn from this passage about the desires of our hearts:
1. The desires we carry in our hearts must come from GodHis desires will be those of the Spirit and not of the flesh.

2. He is the only one who can fulfill the desires He has placed within us—the fulfillment of these desires will glorify Him. He doesn’t say to us, “I have placed My desires within you, now it’s up to you, go out and make them happen.”
3. He places His desires in us as a result of us delighting in Him—we will desire what He desires, delight in what He delights in, and rejoice over the things He rejoices over.
4. He wants us to trust in His faithfulness to fulfill those desires.
5. Don’t give up on any desire that God has placed within you.

What should you do as you wait upon Him to fulfill those desires? Do not attempt to strive, manipulate, or struggle in yourself to fulfill them. God has promised you that He will give you the desires of your heart; God has said that He will bring it to pass.

As you wait, rest and wait patiently for Him. There is no benefit in pressing or pushing, but rather be at peace, knowing that God’s timing is always perfect and His ways always bring the best.

{ ~ from The Notebook }

So it's not gonna be easy. 
It's gonna be really hard. 
We're gonna have to work at this every day, 
but I want to do that because I want you.
 I want all of you, for ever, 
you and me, every day 
~ Noah Calhoun




The Notebook is one of my all time favorite movies. The story of Allie and Noah, is the epitome of true love. Just like Romeo & Juliet (another all time favorite romance) they are star crossed lovers who's parents seem to get in the middle and cause all kinds of chaos, but even after Allie's mother tries to keep them apart, they find their way back to each other. Live happily ever after, all the way to the end, and Noah never leaves her side. That is exactly how it should be. True love never dies, it just drifts off to sleep and never wakes up. 

stay tuned for more quotes . . . .

{ . *fairy.tales.do.exist* . }




sometimes, right in the middle of an ordinary life, it reaches out and hands you a fairytale.

There are some who do not believe in fairytales or happily ever afters, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. I have seen it happen, and I am starting to think life has handed me one. Hopefully, it will continue. It will if it is meant to be, and for now I am happy with that.

for now, love without measure.
