a husband and a home, and may there be
accord between you both: there is no gift
more solid and more precious than such trust:
a man and woman who conduct their house with minds in deep accord, to enemies
bring grief, but to their friends bring gladness, and --
above all -- gain a good name for themselves."
(Odysseus to Nausicaa)
January 31, 1990 ~ the day Ken proposed marriage ~ twenty-five years ago. The day that began our solid and precious trust. The day my heart was granted what it wanted most.
(I wrote the story last year.)
May all our hearts be granted wishes,
Love, Allison
