In Honor of Valentine's Day: Do You Want My Hand or My Heart?





It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, but the glory of kings to search out a matter. –    Proverbs 25:2 NASB



It has not been often that my heart has been searched out by people. Surprisingly not even most of the guys I’ve dated have cared to truly know me.

Oh, I’ve been told I was known.  They didn’t need to ask me questions to know me.  They just did, they said.

“I feel like I’ve known you all my life!”

That’s my favorite line.  I’ve heard it enough times to throw up a gallon of those lines.

…It could be a sweet sentiment, but to me, if it is not paired with actually knowing my heart, it makes me wince.  It would make anyone who's been in my position wince.

My experience, much like some of yours, acquainted me with the understanding that people like me not necessarily for who I am, but more for what I do.

Cleveland is for Lovers




God-lovers and Jesus-lovers.  People-lovers and dog-lovers.  Cat-lovers and basketball lovers.  Football lovers and baseball lovers.  Music lovers and art lovers.  Old lovers and young lovers.  Freedom lovers and Family lovers. Country-lovers and City-lovers.

If you’re born and raised here, there’s a lot you could love about Cleveland.  Except for road construction.  We all HATE road construction.
You either hate Cleveland and want to get away from it as fast as you can OR you have an undeniable loyalty to the 2-1-6 district.

I have been both.
