My Husband is the man of my dreams. Ok...when I tell most people this they either roll their eyes or look at me like a giving them a load of horse s**t...or they'll say, "Oh, just you wait - the honeymoon won't last long!"
And I still say, "Honestly, he is the man of my dreams. He's everything I have ever wanted and needed from a person."
About six years ago I was introduced to, "The Secret." If you are familiar with the concept behind the law of attraction and have created a vision board before, you know where I'm going with this. After embracing the law of attraction and fully believing that I can have anything I want in my life if I positively change my thought process, my life started changing...for the better.
First it changed financially. I became more financially intelligent and independent. My goal of becoming a successful business woman became a reality.
Then, one day I wrote out all the qualities I wanted from a person that I would want to spend the rest of my life with. At first it seemed impossible...I would read the list and think..."Well, maybe this is too much to ask for." But, I never changed what I had on that paper. Instead, I would read this list of qualities regularly...especially on days where I felt I needed more love in my life.
Life is indeed ironic b/c when you are about to give up hope, settle for less than you deserve or just get pissed, a flower blossoms and gives you hope.
I held on for one more moment...instead of settling for less and dating men that treated me poorly or lacked security in themselves or were just complete jerks...in my darkest dating moment...my list came to life.
I am writing this for me. Maybe the reader too...but really for me. If there ever comes a point in my life where times get tough or there is a lack of passion in my marriage...I will refer to this post..to rethink, remember and relive everything that I ever wanted in a mate. After all, if I want LOVE, I need to continue to put in the labor in order to receive it.
My Husband deserves my love, I deserve his.
I totally love this post, I have to tell you. I get frustrated with people saying "oh the honeymooon will be over soon!" or "you're still honeymooners!" We've been married for six years!
ReplyDeleteOur relationship and our marriage has only changed because we, as people, have changed, and it hasn't gotten any less special or less honeymoon-ish. We had a unique first year of marriage, and so our relationship is different, but people don't seem to get that.
I love my husband incredibly. He's everything to me. I am so glad to see you have that too!
