God, let this be true of me, that I can honestly say to You, that...
- You are better than the gentle stroke of my mother's fingers through my hair as I lie with my head in her lap as a little girl, listening to her magical bed time stories and songs of mystical adventures and dreamy lands
- You are better than the wafting fragrance of freshly made confectioneries as I pass the local bakery
- You are better than the first taste of melting butter on a thick slice of fruit toast and soothing tea with honey
- You are better than being swept off my feet to visit a new place with pretty things, quaint cafes and the inviting smiles of every person you walk past on the streets alive with colour, great food and music
- You are better than the perfect proposal of love forevermore made on a little grassy knoll, hidden from the traffic, that overlooks peaceful waters travelling beneath a bridge grey with age yet strong and rich with history so as not to be forgotten
- You are better than a long stroll hand in hand with my husband on a quiet beach as the sun sets with an unassuming yet majestic air, leaving a warm glow over the glistening sea
- You are better than the feel of cool sand between my toes on a hot Summer's day and that long-awaited sip of iced lemon tea
- You are better than being rugged up under a cosy doona at home on a cold, wet day with all the time to spare for a good book read slowly at a window sill with moments taken to ponder, watch the rain and hear the soft tapping of water falling against the glass, or for good steamy hot chocolate and a film to move the heart
- You are better than that exciting new discovery, found by chance, that lets you be the first to know and tell of its wonders
- You are better than finding that special garden, tucked away from the crowd, where you escape the busyness of life as it takes you in with the sights of old trees overflowing with beautiful scented flowers of white, yellow and purple, and offers you a safe haven for sharing life's precious moments and deep secrets held in the heart with a close friend over a scrumptious breakfast
- You are better than Rocky Road and Movenpick chocolate ice-cream with springy little white marshmallows and roasted almonds...better than Weiss sorbet of raspberry and cream...better than a hot large puff pastry casing stuffed with delicious curry mince
- You are even better than being right
