We Are Married

I know being married for one month is not really a huge achievement (unless, of course, if you are Kim Kardashian or Katy Perry). But, it is nice to have little celebrations for those small achievements that, when combined together, will eventually become a huge shining trophy. People like to keep track of the big stuff that they forget the little things. Those little things count for something, too. That one time your husband remembers to take out the trash without you asking him? That one time your wife lets you sleep in? That one time you did that little crazy thing? I am a huge believer of the little things. I believe that the little things change our lives more than the big things. After all, those gaps in our lives, are better filled with the little pieces of puzzle than the big ones, simply because they can fit better. So, remember all those little moments and keep them close to your hearts. You may one day discover its magic.

Although the word "fun" consists of only 3 letters, it has many different meanings depending on who you ask. Dearest and me define "fun" differently; I think going to museums is fun, he finds amusement parks fun. No, I do not really enjoy amusement parks. Yes, I mean that. I know, I know. But, that does not prevent us from having fun together. I think what really defines fun is who, not what. Even the lamest activity can be fun, when you are doing it with someone you love. Yes, that was a somewhat cheesy sentence. But, honestly, I think it's true. After all, marriage is about compromise and sacrifice. So, sacrifice your definition of fun and relax! Try out different things together. Who knows? You might surprise yourself. All in all, I thank Allah because my husband enjoys shopping almost as much as I do.
