3 beautiful years.
It was 3 years ago I had the best party of my life! Mine was not a conventional wedding. Many who heard my plans hesitated to agree it would be a fun one.
I had the dresses, the chinese gate crashing, and the western solemnisation. But all I wanted to do was to get wasted on my wedding day!
All the important people in my life whom I cared about were with me and part of my big day. Friends and family from across the globe were here, especially all my favourite girls in my life. Having all of them by my side was a dream come true.
I often get asked on how difficult it was to transit into newly weds. Especially some friends who have asked if I went for some kind of pre marriage counseling, to assure me that I knew what I was getting myself into. However if you knew me well enough, you know I’m the kind of girl who believes if you need counseling to get married, you shouldn’t be getting married at all.
I remember a time when I was still active at church, and all my friends were against my relationship; the perfect relationship with a man from a good family, good up bringing, good job. A man who loves me unconditionally, who adores my charms and my flaws, all because I was already living in this man. That I have shamed my modesty to a man I wasn’t married to. All because he, did not go church. The choice then was simple, to dump my judgemental friends or dump the love of my life?
I have never doubted my love for him, nor have I ever doubted his faithfulness towards me. Living together at first was challenging, but painless. Through him I’ve learnt to share, accommodate, and to accept habits that never used to tolerate. Our love is easy, simple, and sometimes, I imagine that our love could possibly be a dream because of how perfect it is.
Today, we have the most perfect little girl. And I cannot wait to expand our little family for the years to come. Everyday I come home into his arms and embrace our little one, and it is so much more rewarding than the paycheck I get every month.
I am at the happiest time of my life, and I know things are just gone keep getting better! Bring it on, Life!
