a letter to my younger self
Dear Julie Partikevich,
One day, an amazing person will walk into your life. He will come in softly, without any kind of disturbance. You will give him everything you've got. You will do this voluntarily. You will do it with passion.
Allow me to pinpoint that charming day that will consume your entire mind. Allow me to narrate the ideal person who will care for your beating heart.
Remember when you were on bed rest for a long month due to a snowboarding accident?! That is what brought you closer to your family and God.
It's kind of sad that it had to come to that. Your attention was desired by God at that moment. He needed a second of your busy life. And in order for you to hear His voice, God had to stop everything.
You, on the other hand, had been thinking the opposite. You thought that you were forgotten and betrayed by your Heavenly Father.
Just when you thought all hope was lost, God turned the key. An unexpected door opened widely and a Godly man entered your life.
It was that "ideal person" that I have mentioned earlier. Your heart's ointment, Thaddeus, was perfect-timing.
Thaddeus will be your therapy and your life. You will fall for him in no time.
That soul of his will breathe power into you.
Those hands of his will pass courage unto you. In his eyes, you will only spot the light.
That is the person you will marry; and your marriage will last a lifetime.
The best of him and the best of you will be used to build a lasting family castle. And with God's Grace, destructive words will evaporate by the time they are spoken.
You will love your soulmate more than he loves you. You will be simply happy with your life, your marriage, and the world around you. You two will be blessed by God, Himself.
***I finally put my "Dear single Julie" thoughts on paper. I always knew that the best of the best was heading my way. Also, I've always been patiently waiting and praying for my future husband.
Never underestimate yourself or your future. Keep high hopes for today, tomorrow, and always.
Happy 6 months of marriage to the Sharikovs
