Dear Future Husband,
A fun fact about me is that while my mom was giving birth to me, the radio was on and "The Longest Time" by Billy Joel was playing. It's such a nostalgic song, even if I didn't happen to come into the world with that music playing, and at the same time it is such a hopeful song for the future. And I love the lyrics, especially the part when she inspires him to write music and do what he loves. Hopefully someday when I meet you I will be that same inspiration to you that I will be able to give life to your dreams and not just pursue my own. I want to inspire you to dream big and whatever it is that is your passion I want to push you towards it. I guess I've matured since my high school years (and everyone rejoiced haha!) because back then and even up until recently I've looked at people's marriages and thought that submission to your husband was not a fun thing because it made you give up your own dreams to follow your husband's. However, I have come to the conclusion that once you find that someone you want to spend forever with then it is so much more fun to see them light up with joy when they are doing something that they love. And in a marriage both individuals will push each other and inspire one another to pursue their dreams just so that they can see the other one light up with a radiance that comes from within. And that is so much more beautiful when the heart is alive than any exterior beauty that fades with time! So my prayer for you today is that you are finding something that makes you really light up from the inside out and are pursuing that, not just the temporary pleasures that are like a candle that can be quickly extinguished! I cannot wait to join you on your journey!
Forever and always faithfully yours,
Your Future Wife
