Better Than Your Dreams

“You know you’re in love when you can’t fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams. ”

~Dr Seuss

How many of us remember those early days of being in love? The mornings where you wake up with butterflies in your stomach because you realize your dreams are coming true. The nights where you stare at the stars and wonder how life could get any more beautiful.

Love is such a precious gift! It happens when you least expect it and overwhelms you with its power.

Love also takes work. You have to be willing to make sacrifices for each other, to be sensitive to another’s wants and needs. There’s a saying that says “always put the other first”.  How true this is for a marriage!

But the rewards are immeasurable. When you take the time to actively love each other, you will discover a love that grows deeper and more profound every day. Even when the luster of glistening new love starts to fade, your love will be stronger and deeper than you’ve ever imagined.

“So it’s not gonna be easy. It’s going to be really hard; we’re gonna have to work at this everyday, but I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, forever, everyday. You and me…everyday.”

~Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook
