But when the Holy Spirit controls our lives, he will produce this kind of fruit in us: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Galatians 5:22

Savannah sometimes sounded a lot like the little voice that had taken up residence in my head but never bothered paying rent, and right now it whispered that if I felt guilty, maybe I was doing something wrong.

On the drive we talked easily, but we did make a small detour. After pulling into a rest stop, we made out like teenagers.

In our time together, you claimed a special place in my heart, one I'll carry with me forever and that no one can ever replace.

Believe it or not, that was the first time I recognized that in some ways she was just like the rest of us.

It's funny, but have you ever noticed that the more special something is, the more people seem to take it for granted? It's like they think it won't ever change. Just like this house here. All it ever needed was a little attention, and it would never have ended up like this in the first place.

Rekindled love is generally short-term.
