"Guess which traits psychopaths share?
Glibness
Extreme charisma
Need to always be doing something
Feelings of high self-worth
Pathological lying
Proneness to boredom
Emotional unavailability"

Find someone who isn’t afraid to admit that they miss you, Someone who knows that you’re not perfect, but treats you as if you are.  Someone who’s biggest fear is losing you.  One who gives their heart completely. Someone who says I love you and means it.  Last but not, least, find someone who wouldn’t mind walking up with you in the morning, seeing you in wrinkles and your gray hair, but still falls for you all over again.

"This is my vision of marriage: it is the love that you share with another that enhances you both. You can become better students of God and children of the Lord; you can become better yous. You will support whatever dreams and visions each of you has for your life, and you can share common dreams for your future together. A spouse is somebody you can have fun with and argue with, someone with whom you can build a family."

#righontime “Who of you by worrying can add a single minute to his life” (Matthew 6:27). 
via @spiritualinspiration:

God doesn’t want you to live worried and anxious about anything. He knows that worry is counterproductive. It steals your peace and joy and affects every area of your life, even your sleep! Have you heard the saying, “Don’t worry yourself sick?” Yes, worrying will actually make you physically ill. You won’t ever gain anything by worrying, in fact it causes you to lose precious moments that you can never live again. The good news is, God has promised to bring you victory over worry. When you make the choice to put an end to worry, God will give you His peace.  Decide today to put an end to worry in your life. Don’t feed worry by focusing on bad news all the time. Sure, we should be informed, but we should be most informed of the truth of the Word of God. Choose today to feed your faith and fill your heart and mind with God’s promises. Declare everyday, “My God shall supply all my needs. He makes a way out of no way. He is a Restorer and Redeemer.” As you focus on God’s Word, you’ll drive out worry and fill your heart with faith and expectancy. You’ll be filled with hope and joy and move forward into the blessings God has in store for you.
