Yes, I am working on more posts for my blog. As I expected, I have a lot to say, not enough time to say it, and am having massive trouble filtering everything down to the level where I can make it all make sense and not go on forever.
That's all beside the point.
I wanted to take this time to deal with an important thing on my heart today.
Today marks three and one half years since I became a married man.
I still really don't understand how it happened. I don't know what possessed a wonderful, caring, beautiful woman like Angela to want to commit to spend the rest of her life with me. I can't comprehend what she sees in me that would cause her to smile when she sees me. I'm puzzled by her perseverance despite all of my eccentricities and failings.
I used to think that I understood what love was. Boy was I wrong.
It is so much more than I ever guessed, and I bet in another few years I'll look back at this and realize that I still had more to learn.
I knew that there was an element of choice in loving someone else, but I didn't understand just how rewarding that choice could be.
I thought I understood the power of the emotion that could be felt for someone, the deep longing to just see them and be with them, but that was so far less than what I experience now.
I just wanted to share my joy with all of you and publicly praise God for giving me such a wonderful gift.
