Of Greater Preferences

Lori and I spent three years in Dallas OR, a small town 20 minutes from Salem. In some ways, it was the best place we’ve ever lived. Great climate, fantastic gardening, and just 45 minutes to the beach! All of those things are my preference.

And yet we don’t live there, or anywhere near there. What’s more, if someone offered us a nice home in Dallas for $1 a year for as long as I lived, I’d turn them down. 

Why? Because I have other preferences that are more important to me. Living near my grandchildren, the friends we have here, and our church. Those things matter more to me than the things I like about Dallas.

The preferences I have for how a woman looks are the same. There are things about a woman’s personality, intelligence, and sense of humour that are way, way, way more important than my preferences about how she looks. I bet your husband is the same.
