All I Want For Xmas

I don't need a car

Nor do I want for gold

All I need, my honey

Is your hand to hold

I don't need fancy clothes

decorate my body

They would just be removed

When I need to change

I don't need presents

Underneath a big tree

All I need is my Honey

Right next to me

All I want for Christmas

My only true wish

Is to be wrapped up

In your love with a kiss

Thanksgiving, Initiating and Expressing

They are the keys of creating romance sparkling in relationship. As mentioned before that I feel the romance is slightly dimmed. Praise God, He knew our needs and supplied it.
Sometimes, it's ashame for us. He is so good to us but we often do unpleasant things to Him.

Well, Thanksgiving is the first key. Giving thanks to God that our partner is a special gift from Him. He has a beautiful plan for us since we were in the womb.
How's amazing His work for us before we met. They shaped us differently in His special ways but we had a real connection between each other.
When we met, we could understand each other, accept each other's weaknesses and strengths, support each other in good and bad times and prayed for each others needs.

The second key is Initiating. Instead of complaining to the condition, starting with initiative to light up the romance fire in this relationship. Please don't wait who's doing first and use our ego as an excuse. That's not gonna be working. In relationship woman and man have the same opportunity to initiate. In the old age, our wiseman said that woman should wait for the man to initiate everything. Yes, it's partly true for certain cases. However, if this is for the benefit of the relationship itself. Gender is not an excuse.

The last one is Expressing. After we have a willingness to start, don't stop until there and wait and wait. Express your feeling, praise our partner, hug and touch our partner with love.
That will be a magic way. Love is an action. It's not just a fantasy or imagination. It needs an action so other can feel it and the love can be transfered.

Those keys I have found out from my experience. Now, the romance is sparkling again and I love him more and more and so do him. I feel like it's the first time we met and the love just abundantly surround us.
Thanks God...

" Desert Period "

Well, our relationship is more than 6 months now.
Sometimes, I have a doubt if this relationship really works for us.
Sometimes, I'm just afraid if the feeling and love are just faded away and become friendship instead of couple.
I know that I am not supposed to think in a negative way. However, that tought just suddenly strikes to my mind.

Hmm...I don't know whether I take for granted of what he has done for me or actually I expect more and I don't get it.
I just feel that the romance is slightly faded away. It's because we just take for granted each other everyday and we are too busy with our works therefore we feel that there's no use to express our feeling to each other anymore or other reasons. I do believe that we still love each other until now and yeahh, we still contact and meet each other at least three times a week.

Some people said to me that for new couple is a honey moon mode but after one year and subsequently it will be different.
Actually I don't want to believe that, I believe that if we do something to maintain it or even create the sparks again, the feeling will still be there. But of course, it needs effort from both side.
Well, perhaps it's kinda "desert" period for me.
I believe that even in the relationship with God, we will experience this "desert" period when we feel nothing, everything seems not exciting but God still always be there for us.

Hopefully, this is just my short term feeling only and everything will be back like before.
Our relationship is full with joy, love, romance.
