Marriage is…
Marriage is….laughing together, crying together, grieving together, celebrating together, working together, growing up together, sometimes growing apart, fighting, hurting, rejecting, accepting, betraying, forgiving (70×70x70), loyalty, doubting, trusting, believing in someone you know will let you down, agreeing, disagreeing, taking, giving, standing by someone even when you dislike them, communicating, not communicating, security, insecurity, feeling love, feeling hate, feeling nothing at times, knowing there is one person in the world who truly knows who you are and loves you anyway, being one and yet separate, the hardest human relationship in the world and yet the most worthwhile…commitment.
