Modern Day Love Story


Embedded image permalink

In today's world where marriages last but a relative minute and inter-racial marriages have the stereotype of lasting even less, it is refreshing to see a modern day love story. David Bowie and Iman's 20 year marriage ended this week with the death of Mr. Bowie.

Both Iman and David had their own businesses. She was an international model and he was a rock star. Yet, they found time to fall in love, be in love, stay in love for 20 years. It can be done. Listening to Iman celebrate her marriage, we can see it can also be well worth it.

One of the last posts Iman wrote about celebrating David Bowie's 69th birthday was "Sometimes you will never know the true value of a moment until it becomes a memory."

The next day came the news the world was not expecting, with another beautiful post from Iman, "The struggle is real, but so is God."

May those of you who are married begin to look at your marriage in the same way - one that is truly valued in this current memory.
