It's funny. Yesterday I "composed" a post about how annoying people are to me. It was pretty long. I had a feeling I shouldn't post it, but that I should just keep it to myself- I didn't know why.
Then yesternight, I came across this video, about loving one another. Doh! Lesson learned.

Not only did it get me because of that, but it also made my heart go thud thud as I realized what a gift I have been given with Ryan-who has taught me a whole lot about love; not just with eachother but with everyone around us. The way he has shown his love for me and others has brought me even closer to my Savior, as I begin to comprehend the love that He has for each one of His children.
I have wonderful parents who have loved me from day 1, and I've never doubted that. But there's something to say about someone who comes in and teaches you things about life that you couldn't have learned any other way.
I feel so fortunate to have found someone who has never played games, has always been humble, has always treated my feelings with tenderness and kindness-someone who teaches me to be better without even saying a word- all of these things and more teach me about Christ's perfect love as Ryan shows his own love to me.
One word: thankful.

thanks for sharing that whit.
Remindes me of this quote: :-)
You long to give yourself completely to someone – to have a deep soul relationship with another, to be loved thoroughly and exclusively. But God says:
“No, not until you are satisfied, fulfilled, and content with being loved, loved by me alone, with giving yourself totally and unreserved to me, to having one intensely, personal and unique relationship with me alone. In discovering that only in me is your satisfaction to be found, then you will be capable of the perfect human relationship that I planned for you.
You will never be united with one another until you are united with me… exclusively of anyone or anything else, exclusive of any other desires or longings. I want you to stop planning, stop wishing and allow me to give you the most thrilling plan existing, one that you can imagine.
I want you to have the best. Please allow me to give it to you. Just expect the greatest things. Keep listening and keep learning the things I tell you. Just wait. That’s all.
Don’t be anxious and don’t worry. Don’t look around the things others have gotten or that I’ve given them. Don’t look at the things you think you want; just keep looking to Me, or you’ll miss what I want to show you.
I am working even at this moment to have both of you ready at the same time. And when you are ready, and the one I have for you is ready. I’ll surprise you with love far more wonderful that you would ever dream of.
Until you are both satisfied exclusively with me and the life I have prepared for you, you can’t experience the love that exemplifies your relationship with me and is thus the Perfect Love.
And dear one, I want you to have this most wonderful love in my time. I want you to see in the flesh, a picture of your relationship with me and to enjoy materially and concretely the everlasting union of beauty, perfection and love that I offer you with myself. Know that I love you utterly. Believe it and be satisfied. "
