It Makes the World Go Round :<)

Marriage                  

It’s the biggest “gamble” most of us will ever take.

And for some of us, we roll the dice a time or two. ;)

Through the good days and the bad.

The lean times and the sad.

It’s nice to know that someone truly cares.

To wake up, wrapped in a warm embrace.

Eyes, that look beyond the surface to the center of our being.

On our side, without question or compromise.

Love: it makes the world go round. :)

Romance: what makes it all worthwhile.♥

    Yes, Geraldine, I think that love does make the world go round. :)
    For most anyway, but if there were no love I think the world would still turn,
    but without us.

    Yes, romance is that makes it worthwhile. But often it is seen heat of marriage evaporates romance!! A beautiful and playful post!

    Hi Jim, I agree. ;)

    Hi Harshad, I like your “playful” reference, I was trying to convey that too.

    Hi Lisa, Yes, indeed.

    Hi Tony, thanks friend.

    Wishing you a week filled with love, G :)

    Hi Leo, I hope it works out great. Love in all it’s forms adds so much to our lives. :)

    Hi Christine, That line is actually a quote a wonderful friend of mine used to say on a regular basis, I never forgot it. He was quite a romantic guy himself. ;)

    Hi Sandra, Thank you!

    Hi Vidyatiru, Welcome and thanks!

    Happy Wednesday, G :)
