Pro-Life: She Would Have Been My Wife!

I can only imagine that her name would have been Story.
It hurts too much to even think of what her last name would have been.
She would have been the most beautiful girl on earth. She would have
had pretty brown skin, long black hair, and gorgeous hazel eyes. She
would have had the most picturesque smile to go along with that goofy
laugh that she would have had. She would have been really smart and
outgoing, yet shy at the same time.
She would have been able to get along with anybody,
and I do mean
anybody! I would have asked her to be my girlfriend and I would have
liked to think that she would have said "Yes" with that delightful voice
that she would have had. I have to admit that I would have been
"lovestruck" over her!
I would have done anything for her. It hurts too much to think about
my love, Story, because she was killed in the most heinous, cruel,
and selfish way. Story will never ever be able to have a proper burial,
her name won't ever be printed in the Times Picayune so that the
world could have known her like I would have known her.
She will never be able to experience human life as you and I know it to be.
Story was aborted, killed in her mother's womb. I am doing what my love,
"Story" would have wanted me to do, and that is to give her and others killed
like her the respect that they all deserve. I dedicate this article to all the unborn
babies who will never be able to experience human life because of the existing
abortion laws.
If I could just have had the chance to see her. I would
tell her that I'm sorry that I wasn't able to protect her like I
should have been able to do. I would tell her that she deserved to live and
that somebody does love her. I would tell her that
I miss never smelling the sweet scent that she would have had. I would
tell her that her parents did love her, but for whatever reason they
weren't prepared to have her. I don't know exactly how I would tell
her this, but I would dig deep inside my heart to find a way to tell
her.
I would tell her that I did try to save her by educating people
about human life, and that she did exist from that very time those 46
chromosomes (23 from her mother and 23 from her father) came together
to create her. I would tell her that I did tell people that she already had
that flawless look, that flawless laugh, and that flawless personality; because from
that time (when those 46 chromosomes came together) she had already had the
personality traits of her "would-have-been" mom and dad. I would tell her that
from now on I promise to defend all human life.
Story and all unborn children killed by abortion deserved to live.
Abortion in my opinion is a massacre that must be stopped. I ask all of you
to educate yourselves about abortion, so that your future wives or husbands, doctors,
lawyers, scientists, and teachers will not be unjustly killed. Help me honor Story by
helping me and other pro-lifers put an end to Roe v. Wade (a Supreme Court ruling
that allows abortions to be performed legally in this country to this very day).
I hope that I have honored you Story by telling your story to
others. I want you to know that you would have been my wife. I love
you Story… R.I.P. (Rest in Peace).
