Been a little nostalgic today... our 31st wedding anniversary... got out our wedding album and my mind returned to the beginning of our journey as husband and wife... I can't imagine sharing this journey with anyone else!
The first prayer I remember praying consistently was about who I would spend my life with. Today I am thankful for that answered prayer. His name is Barry. (But if he ever shaves off his beard, I may not recognize him for a minute or two!)
"Say good-bye?
Why I can barely say goodnight!
If I can hardly take my eyes from yours,
how far can I go?
Walk away?
The thought would never cross my mind.
I couldn't turn my back on spring or fall,
your smile least of all.
When I say always, I mean forever,
I trust tomorrow as much as today
I'm not afraid to say I love you
And I promise you I'll never say good-bye...
And if I never leave your arms,
I really will have traveled everywhere,
for my world is there...
If I can hardly say goodnight,
how could I ever say good-bye?"
This was one of the songs at our wedding... I couldn't find the Judy Collins version on YouTube, so here is Barbara Streisand's version...
