"His house was perfect, whether you liked food, or sleep, or work, or story-telling, or singing, or just sitting and thinking, best, or a pleasant mixture of them all." Tolkein

It has been said...

"...the events that led me to comprehend that art can transform pain." Roman Polanksi

"Women have a thirst for order and beauty as for something physical; there is a strange female power of hating ugliness and waste as good men can only hate sin and bad men virtue." Chesterton

"The riddles of God are more satisfying than the solutions of man." Chesterton

"To the humble man, and to the humble man alone, the sun is really a sun; to the humble man, and to the humble man alone, the sea is really a sea." Chesteron

"Men do change, and change comes like a little wind that ruffles the curtains at dawn, and it comes like the stealthy perfume of wildflowers hidden in the grass." Steinbeck

"Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket--safe, dark, motionless, airless--it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable." Lewis

"We're not necessarily doubting that God will do the best for us; we are wondering how painful the best will turn out to be." Lewis

Storybook

A thousand starlight kisses
Morning tokens of sunlight wishes
My arms a cradle for your dimpled smiles

Whisper prayers and secret dreams
Dance with me on moonlight beams
Let's dip our toes in the same cool water

Winding country roads
Silent songs filled with love's subtle odes
Perfect rhythms from interlocked fingers

Place your soft hand in mine
Like a cloud in the sky's summer shrine
My blue eyes will watch over you

Tyler Hill said...: A splendid song of certainty, overflowing with sparks of idealistic enchantment. Artistically conceptualized.
Very commanding and in control...you cradle with security, guide the hand with purity, and watch over with maturity.

What more can a guy ask for? Or maybe you aren't talking about our romantic getaway at the coast last summer?

Michael said...: Kristie, you know where Tyler's heart lies 364 days of the year... can you really blame him if he vents a little steam one or two nights a year?; 4:40 PM
Tyler Hill said...: Michael, this monthly blog is beginning to sicken me... time to post my friend, time to post.

By the way, Kris and I enjoyed having you and your buddy over for the 'slumber' party.; 12:00 AM
