There's a difference between "Nice Guys" and "Good Men"

and despite that, even Good Men have bad seasons.
Nice guys are decent by acts.
Good men are decent by character. 

As for me, I met a 'nice guy.' He was placed in my life as a fleeting entity—introduced as a lifetime promise, but he parted as a temporary provision. It was good while it lasted and I stand by Dr. Seuss's quote, "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened."

I can smile because in the time Robert was in my life, I grew closer to God in my quiet times of studying scripture, in prayer, in meditation, in thanksgiving for the man I received.
I can smile because my heart learned gratitude and saw beauty in God's gracious giving.
I can smile because I knew what it means to be in harmony with God.

But most importantly, I can smile because I have JOY. Jesus has ransomed me; although I am unworthy, I have been deemed worthy because I was blessed with God's favor, seen as blameless in His sight.
