I didn't even think I could ever go so long without blogging. But then again....you never really know what you're capable of until the opportunity presents itself. I have been really busy (I'm sure you're thinking - who hasn't) and I have let some things take the place of others.

Only recently i asked Him to secretly increase the number of hours for me alone (maybe 29hrs instead of 24hrs?)lol. but then again, I might spend the greater part of it, making up for lost sleep. :) Anyway, while driving home from work yesterday, I passed by a mad man.

For them it’s been 30 long years of love and war, of smiles and tears and of hope and despair. I have watched them through my own 20-something years and I have observed that the younger generation still has so much to learn about the true meaning of marital commitment and staying true to the one you promised to love till http://favorsheart.blogspot.com/2010/04/30-yearsand-counting.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Favorsheart)16tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055833891500815627.post-3750427827899422472Thu, 25 Mar 2010 15:57:00 +00002010-03-25T17:11:44.543+01:00Life in HimIf I knew what would happen tomorrow or next week or next month....If I knew whether my book would be published, if the job would be mine, if the man I love so much would ask me to be his wife….
