Forgiveness is the balm to heal all wounds.

Whether you are husband and wife, spiritual partners, lovers, soul mates, it doesn’t matter what you call the union, what matters is - do you cherish and adore this person?

In the meantime, I'll enjoy the ride, savor the beauty, and follow my heart as best I can. What is Mystical Ecstasy?
