Wedding Vows-Never too Late to Hold Hands

One of the things that I sometimes see that cause me to smile and feel very, very glad, is when I see people holding hands.

That simple act seems to speak volumes without one single spoken word. It might be a good idea to promise this in your wedding vows.

Holding hands means you are special to me. It means I forgive you. It means we are partners. It means that we are living in possibilities. It means that we are walking together in life, not in separate directions.

I’m almost considering rewriting the 10 Commandments of Marriage and adding, “Hold hands for one minute every day.”

Just imagine taking 1 minute to reach out and touch each other by making a purposeful connection? Maybe you just stand still somewhere and take each other’s hands and look at each other. I am right now feeling the power in that 1 minute.

That one minute could change everything. It lines both of you up on the same page, or the same promise, or the same dream or however you might want to express it.

That one minute says I love you, I forgive you, I want the best for you, I want the best for us, I want the best for everyone else.

This simple 1 minute connection, if done in the morning could set your entire day in a positive and light way.

What if, for one minute, the entire world held hands? A whistle blew and everyone reached out and took the hand of someone close. What if no one noticed each other’s differences? Just one hand holding another hand. No requirements. Nothing else to do. Just holding hands for 1 minute.

I challenge you. Reach out and hold your partner’s hand for 1 minute today. And one minute tomorrow. And one minute the next day, and the next and the next.

Without one spoken word your life and the world is changed.

Powerful stuff, yes? Remember that your wedding vows are a fabulous vehicle for creating the life you want.
