6/28/10…All of her life she has waited for a man to love her. Someone who will hold her when she needs to be held. Someone to listen to her when she wants to share. Someone who will not turn and run when her sickness overcomes her. There were times when she wondered if there was something wrong with her. There were times when she may have wondered if God would be enough. And so she waited. As year after year went by, and man after man turn and ran, she continued to wait. Sometimes the wait would turn to tears. Sometimes the wait would turn to an ache. But she waited.
And now her wait is almost over…only to be replaced by a journey. She is getting ready to marry a man who is flawed. He is torn by the pursuit of knowing God, only to know it is a futile effort. There is an ache in his heart wanting the passion to return, but fearful that he is not capable of living up to the man God desires him to be. And so he waits. But in his waiting, he thanks God.
His memory goes back to dishwashing and Chopin.
