This says it all.

In and Out of Time by Maya Angelou

The sun has come

The mists have gone

We see in the distance our long way home

I was always yours to have

You were always mine

We have loved each other in and out of time

When the first stone looked up at the blazing sun

And the first tree struggled up from the forest floor

I have always loved you more

You freed your braids, gave your hair to the breeze

It hung like a hive of honey bees

I reached in the mass for the sweet honeycomb there

God, how I loved your hair

You saw me bludgeoned by circumstance

Lost, injured, hurt by chance

I screamed to the heavens

Loudly screamed

Trying to change our nightmares into dreams

The sun has come

The mists have gone

We see in the distance our long home

I was always yours to have

You were always mine

We loved each other in and out,

in and out, in and out of time

It's really happening!!!

Wow, so in two days I will be married. I find that a little hilarious picturing myself as a 'wife'. The wierd part it is really doesn't feel like anything magical because we've been together for so long and can just figure out the other person like an open book. Oh I'm dieing to here the lovely advice that people are gonna give us. Ours is to always play after working.

'A whole new world'

I have always been the one who said 'no' to it all along. I wanted to be the free-spirit and never have to answer to anyone or share anything including myself. As I got deeper into this relationship, I realized that in order to be complete I had to share myself with someone. There's family and then the partner that you will share your life with. That person makes you see a part of you that you have never seen before. The person I got was a direct answer to what I had been asking God for. I never made any specific request except to get a good man. The day he walked to my door I knew that he was the one. We have been through it all but we both look to one person and one person only, GOD!! He is the answer to everything no matter how hard or easy it is. I like the way I can talk to him, laugh with him, cry with him, play with him and just simply be myself. I am so grateful that even in the hardest of times he is able to hold my head up high even if I keep looking down. He always reminds me that "God will not bring us this far to let us fail". I love this man very much and cannot wait to start this new journey in our lives.
