Only a few get the privilege of being truly loved—the kind of love that makes people feel safe, protected, and supported. God has given every human being some traits; loving someone wholeheartedly and sticking to them through the highs and lows is more like a blessing than one that only a few have. Couples are made through love, and through this love, they make it to marriage. Those who are unmarried can feel this pain, but we guess this is how they are destined to live.
This story demonstrates what it feels like to be loved by the right person. It is about a couple who know how to adapt to different situations and make each other feel loved and cared for, no matter the situation. It could even be a dream, and that could be the problem!
They love each other endlessly and have been happily married for a long time now, but where there is love, facing problems isn’t a big deal. Endless tiring work hours result in little time between the couple, as Chris is a full-time firefighter and the wife is a nurse. In addition, they are parents to two beautiful angels, a two-year-old daughter, and two sons.
Chrish came home on Sunday morning, exhausted from a 36-hour shift. The husband returned home to spend quality time with his family, but he noticed his wife was upset, unaware her feelings had stemmed from a bad dream. Rather than not letting this thing go away, being an emotionally available partner, he listened to her and chose to calm her down.
It was when she told him about the nightmare she recently had of Chris cheating on her. Although she knew it was nothing more than a random dream, Chris, rather than making fun, completely understood how she felt and knew precisely what he had to do next.
Like he usually does every day, he woke the younger daughter up and made breakfast. While they got ready to visit the church, he noticed things still were not in place. Thus, Chris bought a flower bouquet and wrote a heartfelt note to brighten up her mood and remind her of how much he was in love with her, not out of guilt but out of an inclination to uplift and cherish their love.
The note read: ‘I’m sorry I cheated on you in your dreams. I’d love to promise it won’t happen again…’. Only a few lines and a bit of effort were enough to brighten her day and to make the love of his life smile again.
Random acts of love and little gestures can put affection into your relationship, as waiting for a holiday or special occasion isn’t necessary. Any guy could get her flowers on a special occasion, but on a random Tuesday? It means much more.
With the love they have, Chrish, being a wonderful father, also sets an example for his next generation by loving their partners respectfully and giving them the love they deserve, especially for his daughter, as he wants her to know about the kind of love she deserves. It shouldn’t be ordinary. Knowing she was loved and cherished, he knew how well his wife would sleep. In a world of materialism, little gestures should be appreciated as they matter!
