A PLEDGE OF LOVE
I pledge my love as follows:
I acknowledge your need to pursue your personal growth;
I pledge to support you in your search for life's purpose;
I promise to cultivate our love with trust and respect;
I promise to express love with sincere affection and dignity;
I will CHERISH you: I will
Appreciate your contribution to me;
Delight in your company;
Nurture your dreams and aspirations;
Speak to you with care;
Acknowledge your right to express your own mind; and
Show compassion through all of life's journey.
