  1. Beautiful, Gina. I’m glad that you and your hubby such a marriage, and may it ever be so.

    • Thank you Russ! Remembering that we can help create our own fairytales (or keep them alive) is worth every bit of effort. And you and your Beloved with your decades of loving marriage continue to inspire me as well!
      Your friend, Gina

  2. Love the quote by the elderly couple…great post.

  3. I especially like the first one, here. Going to re-blog this, if you don’t mind, Gina :)

  5. Love it!

  6. I love this post! Thanks for sharing!

  7. Love this, Gina. Unfortunately, the font in the picture of the dancing couple makes the “l” look like an “f”. Still rings true, though.
    I feel like love gave me a fairytale, and it wasn’t when I met my wife. It was when she stood by me when no one else would. Thank you for reminding me how lucky I am to be living a fairytale, Gina. {{{Hugs}}} Kozo

    • :D Kozo! You crack me up! Gotta love a wise guru with a sense of humor. I’ll admit I did a second-take too ;)
      That is so sweet that your fairytale rang true when she stood by you when you felt abandoned by others. I too feel like I am living a fairytale, and give thanks everyday that God helped my path cross his again nearly 30 years after we were best friends in our teens! Miracles all around! Happy Hugs to you Kozo! xo Gina

  8. Gina this is a great post- it is so important to remember the power and beauty of love especially in a marriage. Thank you.

  9. Great post.

  10. So many people are disenchanted by past painful experiences that they forget that true love exists beginning with self and then with the other. So nice to see these beautiful manifestations of love. Thanks for sharing
