My rose – precious, thorny, delicateTho’ the rocks abound, the cracks persist
Grass growth refuses to desist
My heart, my love, my soul mate
We are in this together
For sun, for rain, for snow and hail
Take courage when the road is long,
Take heart when the glare is too bright,
A journey, a way, we’ll go, not afraid,
There’ll be cries with tears
Perceived failure with fears
Up and down, round and round
Which way do I turn?
Be assured throu’ it all
I’ll be here
By your side
I’ll give a word of kindness
A show of affection
An attitude of regard
Acts of love
The grass will grow
We must not relent
Must not resent
The journey,
The way home
Our lives at the end to God we’ll present
Your love,
xxx

Beautiful Poem...
We are in this together
For sun, for rain, for snow and hail
..Nice
Y'know it's amazing though...
The kind of stuff some people take for granted.. when you consder the conversations you and the mrs have with your counsellor..
And the need to break down what is important to each person in the context of your relationship..
Nothing good comes easy they say....A lot of people will give A LOT to get this far.....it's very dificult to forget the past because you were the one scorned, keep asking for strenght, it'll get you through.
Each new day only means you are a day closer to complete healing......you guys are doing really really great....you will forget about this in due time.
And that is such a Beautiful letter to you.
1st time here.
Glad you decided to work on your marriage for many walking away is always an easier option.
In years to come when you see your children flourish and you both sit down to enjoy, you will be glad you did not walk awa.
Thank God for progress so far.
@NaijaRoc thanks for your comments very pertinent as usual
@~Sirius~ very interesting point and views.
@Thirty + Thanks for stopping by your comments are appreciated. I like your vision
Thank God for the progress...with the way you are going, this page might end up being my home page...
yes it is indeed very nice.. wonderful poem
Continue to ask God for strength and eventually you will let go. Unforgiveness is hard but it's possible. And as Christians we have to forgive so that God can forgive us.
I'm happy that you guys have made progress and proud that u've chosen to stay and work things out with your wife rather than bail.
*Forgiveness is hard.....
@Rita I am honoured you feel this way..Thanks
@Brownskinaijachic Thanks for stopping by welcome to blogsvile
@Tigeress..Indeed I have forgiven it's the forgetting I am struggling with
awww...u guys r soo *romantic*
lol...
"we r in this together"...awww(huge grin on my face)
lovely poem btw!
You are a good man...please try to forgive and heal, eventually you will realize how much more you love her and truly want to be with her. I have been there before. Its very trite and cliche but still so true that, "Time heals all wounds".
The song is John Legend, Everybody Knows....please listen to it if you haven't already. I think that song is perfection...listen to the lyrics...it's so real.
All The Best, Mika
P.S give your wife a long, tight hug today.
Really Touching. Your wife does have a way with words!
Reminds me that the journey may not always be easy, but with determination, love and understanding, we can all make it home safely.
it feels so good to read the progress you guys are making......
This is my first time here and I had to go as far back as 1st post and work my way down. I couldnt help but shake at some posts, maybe shaking out of fear for marriage and relationships and all that is involved. I commend you greatly though, it cant be easy both for you and for mrs, but the good thing is that y'all are trying to work things out instead of throwing in the towel.
I am sorry such a thing happened to you and your marriage, I hope you and mrs come out stronger and better fortified. I wish you and mrs what you guys wish for yourself. maybe, one day you will come to know the true meaning of "everything works for the good of those who love God". your marriage will be in my prayers.
@Gee nice to put a grin on your face. Don't worry I read it a few times today too
@Mika's Thoughts...You are swell. Will check out the song been a while since I listened to John Legend
@Enkay she's gifted ain't she
@Funms-the rebirth long time thanks for stopping by
@naijagirl, thanks for everything, reading, feedback and most of all prayers
Pretty deep stuff on here.
After every storm comes sunshine, don't really know what you are going through,but hang in there is all i can say.
Thanks for dropping by on my blog.
WOW.. That's all I can say man.... You both have shown that where both parties in a relationship want to sort out the issues there's no stopping them....... Thanks for sharing your story man....
@Blogoratti thanks for stopping by
@DBthinks aka DannyB aka Danny Bagucci. You know that sharing is healing so I should thank you too. You should be top of the comments list but for your changing names
i have followed your blog since day one and it is such a pleasure to see how far you've come. You are getting closer and closer to your target. Keep it up and a lot of us are rooting for you!
I'm glad you guys sorted it out with the counselor and I just wanna say kudos on the progress that you and wifey have made. You guys are an inspiration to folk to try and work things out as opposed to walking away. Much props!
@NA thanks
Original Mgbeke..your kudos is well received. I don't think walking is an option. I was not raised like that
Nice poem.
Seems you & wifey are into poems.
had to ask an igbo friend of mine to translate the last one for me.
by Gods grace you'll heal, and let go of the past.
Stay strong.
@O'Dee & Omo Calabar thanks for the comments
i just keep getting more inspired and encouraged everytime i come here..u r proving to me that a marriage can ACTUALLY work despite what it has been through, as long as God is there and both parties are willing to make it happen.
i pray urs will only get better!
thanks for the inspiration!
@Buttercup it a journey that by the grace of God will be as smooth as possible with expected ups and downs. I pray too I continue to come out on top
