Love is not a fight

Love is not a place 

to come and go as we please 

It's a house we enter in 

then commit to never leave 

So lock the door behind you 

Throw away the key 

Work it out together 

Let it bring us to our knees 

Love is a shelter 

in a raging storm 

Love is peace 

in the middle of a war 

And if we try to leave; 

May God send angels to guard the door 

No, Love is not a fight 

but its something worth fighting for 

To some love is a word 

that they can fall into. 

But when they're falling out 

keeping that word is hard to do 

Love is a shelter 

in a raging storm 

Love is peace 

in the middle of a war 

And if we try to leave; 

May God send angels to guard the door 

No, Love is not a fight 

but its something worth fighting for 

Love will come to save us 

If we'll only call 

He will ask nothing from us 

but demand we give our all 

Love is a shelter 

in a raging storm 

Love is peace 

in the middle of a war 

And if we try to leave; 

May God send angels to guard the door 

No, Love is not a fight 

but its something worth fighting for. 

Cause I Will Fight For You 

Would You Fight For Me 

It's Worth Fighting For.

I absolutely LOVE this song. I watched Fireproof tonight. It is one of mine and Alex's top ranking movies. Yeah so maybe it was poorly produced, but it had one hell of a meaning behind it. I don't think that many people look at marriage that way these days. I don't think they see it as the vows portray marriage to be; "For better or worse.".."through the good times and bad".  It's not "yeah, I'm in this marriage when it's easy, or when it's convenient." You're in the marriage through the good times, the bad times, whether happy or sad. That's what it's all about, the journey that you two make together. That's what makes you stronger and that's what makes the love last forever. I feel like too many couples now look at it as 'oh if this doesn't work, we'll just get a divorce.' No, you don't just go get a divorce. It makes marriage look like such a nonchalant thing, something that doesn't have depth, meaning, love and sacrifice behind it. 

The movie takes every aspect and puts into perspective how important it is to a marriage. It's not the big things, it's the small things that hold it all together. It's putting your complete faith into someone and trusting them with your whole heart. It's giving a little and not expecting to get anything in return. It makes me look at myself and the kind of wife I've been and reminds me that I can always strive to do a better job at letting my husband know how much I appreciate all that he's done and doing those little things that let him know that he does mean the world to me and that this life wouldn't be much worth living if I wasn't doing the journey by his side. I can't wait until he is home again so that I can be the best wife that I can possibly be and to make up for the past seven months that we have missed out on being together. It's so soon I can almost taste it, almost there but not quite yet. It's such a tease, but I can't wait to feel that in my arms and know that we've done it and we're that much stronger for doing it. I'm so proud of us. 

Love is not a fight, but it's something worth fighting for<3

See you soon handsome.
