"Do not pray for an easy life; pray to be a stronger man.
Do not pray for task equal to your powers; pray for powers equal to your tasks!
Then the doing of your work shall be no miracle, but you shall be the miracle.
Everyday you shall wonder at yourself, at the richness of life,
which has come to you by the grace of God."

Love Letter to Ing
My Dear Wife,
I remember the day, my love, when we repeated our wedding vows. I was quite nervous, my palms were sweaty, and I longed for the whole thing to hurry up and end. But at the same time, I wanted it to go on forever. You were so beautiful, my bride. I still remember the sparkle in your eyes as you walked down the aisle towards me. On that day, I promised, before God and the whole world, to love and to cherish you for the rest of your days.
I still stand by that promise, maybe even more now than I did then, for now I better understand the significance of such a vow. Here and now, I promise you that I will be committed to our marriage for the rest of my life.
Because I Love You,
Your Husband.
