I wouldn't want to not be married to my husband, if that makes any sense. I love when we are able to escape our daily reality and go to lunch midweek or sneak out for a late night every so often. I love to make him laugh. A good day is one that begins with a warm hug and a chuckle or two. And it is the laughter that gets us through the times we want to kill each other! I think that people need to be committed to the idea that marriage is for the long haul and takes energy and creativity and hard work sometimes. If I walked away every time I wanted to throw in the towel because things got a little rocky, I would have left before the ink was dry on the license.
It also helps me to remember that regardless of what I promised my husband on that day, I made a vow to God and really don't want to let Him down.
