My First and My Last

 

Thinking about my firsts…

• The first man who kissed me and made me see stars.
• The first man who took me on the most romantic and most memorable first date.
• The first man who captured my heart and caused me to fall head over heels in love.
• The first man I shared myself with intimately.
• The first man who made me see stars intimately.
• The first man I married.
• The first man who made me feel safe.

My firsts will always hold a special place in my heart, but I’m looking forward to the one man who will be my last and my final.

I can feel him approaching...and my heart is already overflowing with love and anticipation.

Constantly Thinking...about my last love.

Beware: The Hungry Heart

As a heart-led person, I realize that I need to always be aware of the fullness level of my heart and make sure it doesn’t get too depleted. I have learned that when it does, I can make really bad heart-led decisions.

Of course, as a believer, I also need to make sure my spirit stays connected, full and healthy. When both my spirit and heart are filled, I find that it is much easier for me to follow the spirit, as I should.

I’ve learned, however, that when my heart is at too much of a deficit, it will over-rule my spirit to find fullness (in all the wrong places).

Here, then, are the things that fill my heart…

• Spending time together
• Enjoying conversation
• Having someone lovingly play with my hair
• Holding hands
• Cuddling; tender touches
• Thoughtfulness
• Verbally being valued or appreciated; words of affirmation
• Being listened to
• Kissing
• Laughing together
• Playing games together
• Doing jigsaw puzzles together
• Being protected
• Being remembered
• Phone calls, texts and emails – just because
• Listening to music together
• Watching movies and TV together
• Overhearing someone speak of me with sweetness, love or admiration
• Knowing that someone believes in me

Yes, as you can probably tell... I am an absolute romantic, who loves love.

So, what fills your heart?

Constantly thinking…
