A Luv Story Born ‘On The Job’
We met though work 11 years ago. I was married at the time, and
never knew that Brandon always had a little crush on me.
Then one day I came into the office, and announced
I was getting a divorce. It was a year later
he got the courage to ask me to a co-workers holiday party.
That was our beginning, and we married 2 years later.
He has a Son, Jack, and we became a family.
We’ve come through some difficult times these last 2 years.
Jack had a tough time of it in High School, and
it tested us all as a family,
but
we came through it stronger, and closer.
Jack graduated with honors, and got a scholarship to
The University of Nevada Reno this coming year.
We’re very proud of him.
Brandon and I are taking the rest of this year off
to reconnect, recharge, and do some traveling.
We are so happy to renew our commitment to each other,
our family, and to living our lives in love and kindness.
So,
that’s our story.
Message:
My Husband and I would like to renew our vows in Maui.
We we married there on Wailea beach Nov 1′ 2011
by the Maui Marrying Man, Ron at that time.
On the job Luv Story – Blessing
Enlightened Sages Wisely state that:
“Everything that has happened… Had to.”
It seems we learn life’s lessons more deeply by our
mistakes and hard knocks.
Often
it turns out that by experiencing a life with someone that is unfulfilling…
Allows us to really appreciate someone that is fulfilling.
When we first get married it feels so great,
But let’s face it… it’s like throwin’ the dice
We never know what’s beyond the bend of our perceptions…
What kind of challenges will cause a need for us to
change course to a separate path.
But when a couple has been way down that road of life
then finally finds their true love… then together
they journey down their own road of life
with its ups & downs and hard knocks….
And after all that, they can still be so in love
that they are fully inspired to renew their vows…
That’s Love – True Love
Soulmate Love
This truly marks the beginning of a new chapter in your
Book of Love called…
Living Happily Ever After
My son is the same age and a similar story…
After our sailing adventures we ‘landed here’ so to speak
And Rob unleased his skateboard prowl-ness on the local kids here,
And soon hung out with the skateboard punks…
an Inspiration of Mischief & Mayhem.
Although he got good grades somehow,
he never seemed to put any effort into it.
Just when I had given up looking for ways to inspired him,
he says to me
“Dad, the only way off this rock is with a good education”.
He went on with focused determination and also graduated with honors
and is now attending Northern Arizona State University on a scholarship
I understand the pride you feel for your son’s achievements,
For it’s not just the moment in time that this ‘pride’ exists…
It is a grand feeling for evermore.
Timeless.
Not only did your son accomplish a major milestone…
So did you both.
It is no less than like moving heaven and earth
to create that open space of Loving Kindness
The Unconditional Love of Family – Ohana.
It will be good for your soul to take the rest of the year off.
After transcending a lifetime challenges
Your whole family is off to exciting new roads
With your son embarking on a path of higher education and
his own life
You both will be embarking on a path of Higher consciousness
With the pursuit of rest and fulfilment of your Being.
It is around this point in one’s Life’s Path’
that we strive for an inner Peace
and begin to connect with our ‘center’…
The Ground of our Being…
Each new subtle step along this ‘Path’ brings a joy and contentment
that becomes less and less effected by materialistic interruptions.
Thus,
Abiding in in a Bliss that can’t be taken away or lessened.
And
as you travel, your example of Peace and Contentment
Along with the Four Immeasurable Virtues of
Love, Joy, Compassion and Equanimity
Will be like a ‘ripple on the pond of life’
that makes this world a better place for everyone.
