Burning Love Entry #5

Dear Readers!

Here's the next entry--sometimes love takes the circuitous route. . .

Six years of uncertainties, doubts, fears and healing.


Six years of fighting, struggling, questioning, 


then finally resting, trusting that He really does know best


and it will all be for good.


Suddenly, a letter arrives, 


with a picture of a guy, 


hugging a tree, 


literally.


I had picked out his name many moons ago, 


for "when" not "if" ...


it seemed too good to be true, 


that this guy would be picked, chosen, if you will, 


by the One who knew what was best, 


and indeed it was a much better choice 


than the one made which caused a great deal of heartache and distress 


for ten long years.


Joy overflowed from everyone who joined us in celebrating our union 


and new life together, 


a humble affair, but so rich in love,


and what makes for a "happily ever after" ending.

This lovely piece brings us to  realization that  we're in trouble.  We have no idea how we're going to pick a "winner" among the entries--and there are more in the wings!  We might have to write a conundrum about it.

What say The Readers?
