call to mind your beloved bring into your heart the way they make you feel
and then just type a stream of conciousness tell the bouncer of your mind to take a break and just type words, they don’t have to make any sense at all and just keep going
if you follow that vein down, you’ll strike on high-minded sentiments worth sharing at a wedding
Expertps from things I’ve squiriled away under “marriage and relationships” that might be relevant to others
“loving someone is creating a context for their growth, fostering a deep well of reciprocal good will”
“Relationship advice from my wise nonna. Deeply in love with husband for 60 years. After he came back from the war he was suffering from PTSD, he needed a lot of support. But she knew that they still had shared values and dreams, and she clung on to that, and nursed him back to health. This shows we can connect with people at a deeper level, not just the surface behaviour.
“I swear Whatever aid you ask of me, I shall render it Whoever you ask me to be, I shall endeavour to become”
“this seems very new to you but seeing someone you like and building a life with them is as old as the seasons changing humans arn’t as good at it as we used to be, because we need each other less but this hides the fact that we still desperately need other people, people who will be close with us your branches have intertwined, and if you’re brave and determined they will grow you will grow so tall, and so vast, and the branches of your love will hold so much they will hold your long lives, they will hold the lives of your children the lives of your friends”
I’m tipsy and on a train, so I shall help you
sit down at a computer
open a blank document
call to mind your beloved
bring into your heart the way they make you feel
and then just type a stream of conciousness
tell the bouncer of your mind to take a break
and just type words, they don’t have to make any sense at all
and just keep going

I loved this first one
“loving someone is creating a context for their growth, fostering a deep well of reciprocal good will”
where is it from?
(thanks! all of them are awesome)
From memory the first part was something Richard Bartlett tweeted, the second was my addendum 😄.
Glad you liked them 😊
