We both decided to write something nice to say to each other at our wedding. We had decided this months in advance of the wedding but I could never figure out what exactly I wanted to say. Until I was talking with one of my best friends about a list we had made years ago when we worked together. This list came from this book. And then I knew what I would say to him.
We were given a list of characteristics we would want in a mate and were to put them in the order of importance to us. My friend and I worked and worked on our "lists" until we perfected them based on what each of us wanted in a person. That was 15 years ago that I made that list and have had it ever since. I've kept it as a reminder of what I want in a soul mate and not to settle for anything less than what I was looking for.
I told him that I no longer needed my list - that I had indeed found my soul mate and that my search was over when I found him. (awwwww - corny I know).
His words were beautiful and brought me to tears.
So now we have them framed and hanging in our room as a reminder of what we said to each other that day. A day I will not forget. : )
