L'amour
Oh February: The month of love, where we need a day to show our love to the one we cherish. Every month should be lovely and romantic...every day should be.
People have always told me that marraige is totally different from engagement, and very different from dating. I never understood how though, even for people who live in common-law households, as soon as they get married the problems arise. One of my mothers collegues was with this guy for 13 years...13 years! living together, even had children...but they got married and lasted 6 months :S
Now I'm only beginning to understand. Marraige truly is something that one has to be ready to sacrifice and compromise when needed, look beyond our own wants and needs and consider someone that you love. And that person has to try to be the same way.
I don't know if I explained that right, forgive me, but I am only in my first year! Any hints married ladies out there?
This is a great little website that my friend sent me recently, with the sweetest note " Because you are the happiest wife I know!", warms your heart eh?

A lot of the articles contain advice that I got from my amazing grandmother on marriage...she's still got my grandfather head over heels in love with her after 50 years!
This month I will:
Choose Happiness <3
Protect his heart and his ego (all in HWC website above...read the articles!)
Much Love
