my one year wedding anniversary......
Current mood: happy
Today is my one year wedding anniversary. One year. Wow. Honestly this year has been great and not so great. But, we can't be perfect all throughout the year, its just not possible..................................................
I look at my husband now, and I still think to myself he is one of the greatest people I may have ever come into contact with through my exsistence right now. I couldn't ask for a better mate, and friend. But like I aid by no means are either one of us perfect. there have been some pretty rough times, even before we were married, and there are still so many trials and tribulations now, but i wouldnt trade any of the times we have shared together. None of it. Through think and thin, here we still are. I remember the day he looked on our weddding day, and it almost brought tears to my eyes, when he was the one actually balling the whole time. He could barely do are wedding vows. Thats when i knew. I mean I knew before, but this was a side I had never seen before. Men are taught to not cry and be a man, well thats what they say anyways........
I admire people who have been married for 10, 15, 20 years and even those who have been married for 50 years plus to the same person. That is the way it should be. A union is between two people, who love and adore each other. now i admire people as well who come out of a bad union and find someone else, maybe marry them, and continue on from there. Marriage doesnt work for everyone that is obvious.....But for those who have married, and stay married, its wonderful. I have seen residents who have been married to the same person for 60 plus years, and still adore there partner after all those years. I have seen residents after their spouse dies they go right after. That is the way it should be. When you love someone enough enough to go right behind them, or sometimes even at the same time. Marriage is not a joke or even a "good idea" when youre bored. A marriage is for love, companionship, friends, maybe even children. I hope that i may add a child to my union someday. Marriage is a wonderful thing. I believe for me marriage was right. I am happy to be at my first wedding anniversary, and i look forward too many more, and hope for the best. After all hoping for the best and taking one day at time is all we can do sometimes. Even though there are marriage that dont work, people still get married. I got married not to prove anything to anyone, I got married because i was in love with my husband, and hope to be like some of my residents that i care for still married to the same person for 60 plus years and have all the stories to tell my children, my childrens children, and more.......At least I can say i married my husband, and not posting a blog about the guy that got away because I never had the courage to go and talk to him......Marriage works for me, and like I said I wouldnt trade all the bad for anything in the world, "everything is learning experience" my grandmother also told me..if you cant learn anything from it, then theres no point to it.....So there is still hope...and to all of you out there that are getting married or or married, congrats to you...and I wish you all the hope and love out there..........
