How do I feel about writing letters to you this weekend?

Dear LORD:

Guide me in the process of dialog this weekend, and help me to be extra-special patient with my sweetheart.

MDDL:

Your MEQ today was that you showed compassion to me in my “child at the keyhole” experience, and the pain that caused me as a small child. It made me cry to hear you say that you thought that was a terrible thing to go though. I was truly touched.

I feel excited about writing letters to you this weekend. If my feeling was a physical sensation, it would be like the thrill of riding a really good rollercoaster: very exciting! On the scale of 1 to 10 my feeling of excitement is an 8. If my feeling of excitement was a color, it would be a bright, fire engine red, like the color of a snazzy sports car. An image of my feeling of excitement would be the night you can’t sleep before we are going on vacation to a really nice place, say Hawaii or Australia. You can’t go to sleep because you are too excited by the fun we are going to be having together in this wonderful place, and the fact that we are going to be together and away from the hassles and demands of our daily life. Using a shared memory to describe my excited feeling, it is like when we had chosen our new home in Chapel Hill, closed on the purchase and were moving into the house. We were really, really excited!

Love
Me
