Day 430 - Better Than Expected

If I haven't mentioned how marriage changes everything, allow me to state it again. Marriage changes everything. And I am beyond blessed, speechlessly blessed, that my husband is passionate about following Christ. We both have our work in front of us, because He's leading and ball is in our court. But that's for a different day.

Anthem and I were talking today that neither of us anticipated it going this well. He came grocery shopping with me today, not because he particularly likes grocery shopping (or going to 4 different stores to get the best prices on items) but because we honestly enjoy each others company that much. I thought I would need more 'girl time' and he definitely thought he would need some time to himself after a while. And I don't doubt that it will happen eventually. Me having a girl's night and he a men's. That being said, every minute we spend together is... cherished. Today we coined the term "Puzzle Drunk".

...I am so thankful I followed my soul in marrying Anthem. I am so thankful I didn't let society, or familial disapproval, or misunderstandings stop me from marrying Anthem. I wouldn't trade this for the world. He's asleep next to me. I've gotta go. I know that this blog is no masterpiece. It's just a whisper to the world that doing something you don't entirely understand isn't such a bad thing.

Maybe that was the key after all, like Anthem says. The key to marriage isn't knowing the other person so well that things must go well. The key might be knowing that you don't know much of anything.
