Like many of us, I used to dream about being married to a kind, devoted, and loving man, and I feel grateful every single day that this dream has come true. There are many reasons why one might fall in love and decide to build a life with an ex-stranger, and being a child of divorce, it’s not a decision I took lightly.

I knew more or less (more more than less) what qualities I was looking for in a man, but when that person knocks on your door, things might look different. I knew I wanted to be with a person who loves and cherishes me. It was also obvious that this person had to be a supportive partner, but I never quite understood the importance of this quality until I met him.

I never realized that being with a supportive partner would mean having someone to hold your hand and share the joys and pains of everyday life. I never knew that this person would make my life so much brighter and easier.

Yes, easier. Having someone who thinks of bringing you your favorite treat for no special reason, someone who takes care of the laundry pile you’ve been trying to avoid because you’re too exhausted, someone who constantly thinks of ways to make your days brighter, someone who actually listens to you even though you are the most talkative person you know. What a blessing.

So no, I was not ready for that. I did not think that my future husband would encourage me in every single way possible to pursue all the things I am passionate about, like this blog.

Whenever I get carried away talking about him, there is often someone who reminds me that I should “wait until…,” but nothing and no one can ruin my enthusiasm for this topic: Love. My love. Our love.
