Marriage…it’s not easy! I think if you were to ask a lot of
married people, many of them would say the same. Staying in the marriage and
making it work really requires hard work and lots of sacrifices and
compromises. I can say that because that’s what we’re experiencing right now.
My husband and I have been married for seven months now and I must say those
seven months have opened our eyes to the reality that marriage isn’t easy.
Imagine two individuals with different personalities,
temperaments, likes and dislikes living under the same roof day in and day out!
Conflict is bound to happen sooner or later. I guess ours happened sooner! These
past seven months had been difficult. And I have to be honest, there were
instances when my patience became so worn to the core and my love was really
put to the test, I really felt like giving up. At times I’m not really sure
where we’re going and it really makes me sad. But those are the bad days. There
are good days as well when I feel like we can really do this and we’re both
happy and we jive in the things we want to do and achieve. But I know now ours is a work-in-progress.
There are good days and bad days. As they say, the first year is the most
difficult year of all because of the adjustments that have to be made!
