When I was younger I knew that my parents were perfect people. As I got older I realized they weren't. I know it's a silly thing to think, but I honestly did and then you grow up and realize no one is perfect. I think our society has made people believe they need to find their perfect other half in order to be happy, accepted, normal. I think that is a bunch of bologna!! I love my husband, don't get me wrong, however, I know he isn't perfect and he knows that I am not perfect either. So, you really just need to find the person who loves you for exactly who you are. Inside, outside, on good days and bad days, first thing in the morning all groggy, all dolled up and dazzling, all the time. Find that person who makes you feel special and one of a kind, because you are, and you deserve it and hopefully in return you'll make him feel exactly the same way. Marriage is a lot more then I thought it would be. Some couples make it look so easy and effortless, but it takes a lot of work! As time goes by and we learn each other more and more, I know it'll get easier and easier. One day I want to be that old couple you see just walking down the street, holding hands, talking about nothing in particular, perfectly happy.
I want to be content in life, not just in my marriage, but in my family, my job, my house. It's a lot to ask for I know, but that's what I want. I don't want a fancy car or house or a million dollars, I want to be content and happy with whatever circumstances come my way. I want to love my husband and family with all that I have to give and get that same love back. I want my loved ones to know how much I appreciate them, need them, care for them, and I hope they feel the same towards me. I am going to try to be a better wife, sister, daughter, friend. I know I can do better then what I've been doing, so time for a change for the better!!
