God sent me Bill

It was time in my life for kindness and understanding, someone who would treat me as a woman and know that when a woman says " it's ok" it usually isn't!

It was time in my life for happiness that was pure and not bought but given freely by someone who cared for me, who allowed me to be me, and not always what he wanted me to be or thought I should be.

It was time in my life to do things I wanted to do, decorate a home, mow a lawn, plant a flower garden, go for a ride in the car, a walk in the woods and turn it into a nature hunt for rocks, wildlife, plants, and find a sun warmed nest of pine needles by babbling brook and sit and talk and share dreams.

It was time in my life to have someone who wanted me to be part of his life and to learn things from him like cleaning fish, hunting, cleaning a turkey and plop it into the freezer, survival skills for an unknown tomorrow if you will.

It was time in my life to have someone who would listen to my fears, comfort those fears, someone who would listen as I said things that were important to me and never judged or said I was stupid of thinking such thing.

It was time in my life to enjoy simplicity, no hurry to get anyplace, meet new people, make new friends, to enjoy the sunsets as the skies turned pink and purple. To see the Northern Lights dancing on a cold winter night, to have someone take my hand and walk with me to wherever the path would lead.

Yes it was time and so God sent me Bill....
