My 2 year anniversary

This is my Beautiful Wife! :)

I am SO in love with my wife, and in the past 4 years, I have really learned more about love than I ever thought I would. I am going to post more on this on Tuesday, but I feel I have learned most that loving someone means that you choose to serve them before yourself, being patient, no matter what, kind no matter what, and holding no grudge no matter what. There is never a reason I can justify treating my wife with anything else than I treated her on the wedding day as we were in front of God and our friends. So when nobody is looking and I have every right to be upset, I still can’t treat her with disrespect, or choose to say or do something that isn’t building up our marriage. I firmly believe that we are either building up, or tearing down our marriages. I strive to build it up. I fail sometimes, but I learn and do better the next time. And that is a choice I have to make every day, even every second I am speaking or doing things. It’s a habit, and that’s what makes up my character. I think marriage exists not only to make us happy, but to make us better people. And the longer we are stubborn to that idea, the harder life is. The truth to making a marriage work is both people choosing to make that daily choice, together, holding each other accountable, and realizing that we are equally capable of being a selfish, stubborn human, but equally, with some help from God, we can treat each other with, patience, kindness, optimism, serving with in every thought, reaction, comment, word and action that we do or say. Anyone can get married, that’s the easy part, the hard part is having the same attitude you did when you were dating, years down the road in marriage. But also growing and seeking something deeper though, and that’s the pursuit, the beginning, there is so much more. I know I will look back in a few years and see this blog entry as a youthful perspective. I am so thankful for what I have learned. To all the couples we have worked with this year. Thanks for your inspiration, and to my parents, thanks for all your wisdom. To my wife, I LOVE you and am so blessed to have you. You are amazing and continue to humble me every day. Thanks for marrying me!
