    Love this, Sanaa…the optimism in this and the message inherent even in the brevity of the cinquain. Lovely.

    Those obstacles should be viewed as blessings, opportunities to improve.. That’s what a relationship should be.

    If you work at it…

    time alone will not make a good soup,
    it has to have the right ingredients in it.
    What we allow into our marriage/love
    and what we take out – def makes all
    the difference.
