Letters to Mr. Right: Letter #17

Dear Mr. Right,

I didn't write this.  But I wish I would have. 

"It doesn't interest me what you do for a living, I want to know what you ache for. It doesn't interest me how old you are, I want to know if you are willing to risk looking like a fool for love, for your dreams, for the adventure of being alive. I want to know if you can live with failure, yours and mine. It doesn't interest me where you live or how rich you are, I want to know if you can get up after a night of grief and despair, weary and bruised to the bone, and be sweet to the ones you love. I want to know if you can be alone with yourself and truly like the company you keep in the empty moments of your life."  ~Jon Blais


Because I would have meant it.


Waiting for that day,

Me

This is probably my favorite letter, because it is SO true. So many people have "lists" that guys need to fulfill in order to be good enough. Salary, job, vehicle, etc.
Bottom line though, is everything in this. THIS is the stuff that's going to keep you married for a lifetime.

Hey Tiffany! I found your blog on the Friday's Letters linkup. Following and glad that I can! That letter is amazing! It rings so true! As one whose been married for a few years, I can tell you that it's SO worth waiting for the right guy rather than settling just to settle. You'll be glad you did! Ps. I love your playslist!
