Perfect timing

By Tim Stafford

There’s a right way and a wrong way to get something done. A lot of it has to do with timing. If you go off the high dive with your timing slightly off, you’ll end up in the water. But, you won’t get there with maximum smoothness and beauty. There’s an inherent rightness is waiting for the wedding day. It’s the rightness of timing. You go all the way with your body on that special day when you go all the way with your mind and with your heart. You say “I do” and full freedom of the dream begins. It’s not the only way to get into the dream, but it’s the surest, the smoothest and the most beautiful. The media have flooded us with a distorted picture of what’s beautiful; beautiful bodies, clever speech; impetuous, erotic romance. 'Tonight’s the night,' the advertisements say. They don’t worry about tomorrow.
But what is truly beautiful is the whole dream – a lifelong love between two people bonded to each other until death. A love that grows and deepens day by day and year by year. A love that brings fulfillment, where sexual needs are met without fear or guilt. A love that’s secure and lasts a lifetime.
The beauty begins with the growth of a couple’s emotional love – a love that wants only the best for each other. And though this may grow into a desire for physical intimacy, they choose to wait, to remain inexperienced until they are sure – sure they have chosen the best person to be their partner for life. When you love someone, only the best will do. Waiting for the wedding day is the best.
