Feeling blessed,

I am so glad that we share that secret Lee, laughter, the glue that seals love.

I am often asked how can we still enjoy each other after 60 years of marriage. And I can only answer, we are very silly, we laugh, we don’t take ourselves seriously, we play, we use weird names, we have fun. 

Paloma, we should have those little glimpses be big glimpses.

Much love

Riantee

I must say, laughter is also what has been the “glue” that seals my love with Dave, too!

Thanks for such a sweet poem, Riantee!

Love always, 

Lee

I love this! Riantee🤗

I missed the 1st part of mastery today.. so I did not have the pleasure of getting to listen to you read this.  Yet as I read it in my mind I heard ur voice and Charles right there beside you laughing.  

I have always adored the dynamics of you two as a couple.  In the little glimpses I have had.  

Soul much love 💗 

Paloma 

Love long and prosper

Love is laughing - For Charles

 

Who's behind us, winking 

when I talk to you?

It's laughter.

 

Who prances by our side 

when I walk along with you?

It’s laughter.

 

What's between us

that drives you nuts

and me crazy about you?

It’s laughter.

 

What makes me hear 

everything you say

even the nonsense,

it’s laughter.

 

What makes me love to

touch you, hold you, 

squeeze you,

it’s laughter.

 

Even anger is beside itself with laughter,

bursting out of every pore,

through every hole,

laughing in all directions

alone or in unison.

 

Laughter shakes me out of who I thought I was,

turning me inside out,

and you upside down 

laughing your head off.

 

Laughter up and down, 

echoing all around

turns me into 

a sunflower

turning its head towards 

its sun-laughter.

 

What makes me accept you

utterly

as you are

is laughter...

 

as you are,

you are

you 

laughing with me

and love 

laughing with us.
