Marriage for one. That's a phrase that always crosses my mind thinking of my own marriage. 7 months ago (almost), i got married. To the love of my life? Hardly. To someone i love? Maybe.
I wonder what it takes to create happiness in a marriage. Constantly talking? Constantly making out? Doing everything for the other person? Never being mad and keeping the unhappy stuff to yourself? Painting a happy picture for the rest of the world to see? Someone in my life not too many years ago told me it all boils down to "mind, body and soul"-a connection at every level.
Somehow i feel we're not quite there yet...
We're smart and independent (partially anyway) as individuals and yet we can't stay in the same room for long or sustain a meaningful conversation for more than say 5 minutes. The biggest pitfall i feel is that we don't fit into each others life-by default and by choice. Also, we're probably too alike than different. Stubborn, refuse to talk, don't want to be the one to initiate the kiss/conversation.
I think i know the problem. Communication. My biggest flaw. And now whether my marriage survives or not depends on whether i talk /cease to be silent. And this marriage means all the world to me.
So time to break the silence?
