A Love Letter To My Husband

The story of a King.

1806
A Love Letter To My Husband
Franklyna Gabriel-Delva

To My King,

I am writing you this letter because I love you, and because you mean everything to me. You were handpicked for me by God. You are my King and I am your Queen.

I am your most valued possession. You have shown me the love that my father always wanted for me. You care for me when I am sick, you lift my spirits when I am low. You are a provider and everything that God has prepared for me. The amount of love that I have for you cannot be expressed in mere words and so I try my best to show you how much you are appreciated every single day. You are worth more than the world to me.

When I became sick, you were there for every appointment. You were there for every shot, for every disappointing test result and for every time I cried "why me?" You were there to put food in my mouth when I didn't want to eat and you stayed up with me when I couldn't sleep. You even made sure to notice when I was struggling even when I tried to hide it because you knew how hard it was for me to admit that I needed help. You were up all night in the emergency rooms with me. You put a smile on my face when I had forgotten how to. You give me my injections because I'm too chicken to take them myself and I cannot thank you enough for the amount of love that you have shown me because even when I didn't want to admit it, you showed me that life is worth fighting for.

But I am afraid...

I am afraid that some people don't understand your worth. I am afraid that people fear your majesty and may seek to take my King away from me. I'm afraid that they don't understand how important you are to me and that you have a family who loves you.

When I think of it, my stomach turns, my spirit weakens, and my mind is a blur. I am distraught and unable to understand why they can't see what I see. After all, how do you overcome the thought of being robbed of a God given gift?

But because you are a king, you don't let it phase you. Your crown remains untarnished. You know that your kingdom is not of this world but have decided to bring a little peace of heaven to earth. You take the necessary precautions but continue to treat everyone the same no matter the color of their skin or the uniform that they wear.

You continue to spread love to everyone that you encounter and pray for peace. You know that the only way to truly achieve peace is to represent it. Your noble character is what follows you and what will be your legacy. You are thoughtful, honest, courteous, above reproach, and a person worthy of respect. You are the love of my life and royalty among men.

I am blessed every day that I am able to spend with you and call you my husband. You are a King made in the image of God himself. I am inspired when I see that the troubles of the world do not shake your belief in humanity or your faith. You wake up every morning, the same caring, funny, thoughtful person that I married. So thank you......

Thank you for being exactly who you are. Thank you for not letting anyone shake your self- esteem and thank you for being my husband.

I still have my fears, but for as long as you are mine, I have a guardian angel on Earth.

Yours Eternally,

Your Queen


P.S. In case you didn't know..... I love you.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Everyone, and I mean everyone has heard of the show "One Tree Hill". Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

Brooke Davis

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:
