Mine consists of a lamp, a candle, the One Year Bible, a novel, a pen, my laptop, and a House Beautiful and Marie Claire magazine. The lamp is my reading and typing tool. I love light. Jorge tried to get me to use this little clip-on lamp that attaches to the book I'm reading and that didn't work out well for me at all. The candle hasn't been lit yet, but maybe one night we'll order some Posh Berries and eat it in candle light while watching a romantic comedy. We're trying to get into the Word as a couple now and we're reading a devotion before bed where we can have a discussion before prayer time. It's been going great so far and sure beats having something on TV be the last thing on our mind before going night night. A novel to help me sleep. A pen to underline a verse that pops out at me. My laptop to surf the net while Jorge watches TV (sometimes). And the magazines are temporary. House Beatiful cause the homes they choose to feature are so elegant and classy with simplistic values, with the use of non-offensive colors. Marie Claire because of the model's poses and an article they feature once a month about women and the strife, sadness, or tragedies they've experienced and overcame in life. Other than that, the rest of the magazine gets tossed into the gar-ba-sh!
Regardless of our differnces, whether it be the items we keep beside our bed or the differences in our likes and dislikes and personality, we're still the same. We're still one. Our bond in marriage cannot be separated and this is how we like it. This is how we prefer it to be. We may poke fun and at times, yes, we may annoy one another, but we're one and the same. Two pieces of wood glued together cannot be torn apart neatly. They are bonded together. If they are separated, it's a "hot mess"! Yes, I did just quote Neicy Nash from Clean House. Moving on... let's celebrate the differences we have and thank God for the hunky or beautiful piece of wood He's stuck us to!
Genesis 2:24 (NIV)
For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.
And because I am not easily embarrassed...
