When I look at you

A short thought

By Colin GustafsonPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

When I look at you I ponder how amazing you were when we met. I blink and look at how my amazement grows as the shadow of your spirit flourishes. Together we can gaze to the future and see all the pain and years of hard times. Great sorrow and weeping we will share . As we see it all we will smile. We smile because the greater the anguish the greater the healing. Once we have good times the pain will subside and the good will be all the greater. Only when I look at you.
