You're that one person for me!!

Its been a year since you came into my life.. MaashaaAllah..through all the time I've spent with you.. I've learned a lot of things.. things that have changed my vision..my perspective.. I've learned that a great marriage is not when the 'perfect couple' comes together...It is when an imperfect couple learns to respect, to embrace n to enjoy their differences...
I've learned that what really matters is how someone treats you..in times of hopelessness I think of you n try to make a judgement..my heart wants me to stay with you..it signals me to be with you..it says that live your life with him..that he loves you.... that he respects you ...that he honors you.. that he is absolutely true to you.. that he gives you the freedom of expression and let you fly in the development of your own talents.. he is not going to be perfect...but if he is kind and thoughtful..if he knows how to work and earn a living..if he is honest and full of faith..the chances are you will not go wrong..the hope is that you will be immensely happy...n if I ask myself..I am happy...overwhelmingly happy..
I've learned that any monumental anniversary or birthday celebrations aren’t what ultimately determine the actual direction of our marriage...rather, it’s the here and now.. It’s those daily decisions we make individually and together that influence how our relationship actually fares in the long run.. I've learned that love is not what I used to think it is..instead its about finding the one person who makes your heart complete..who makes you a better person than you ever dreamed you could be..its about looking in the eyes of your partner and knowing all the way to your bones that he's simply the best person you've ever known...n SJ undoubtedly you're that one person for me..
I remember I didn't want to be married just to be married..I can't think of anything lonelier than spending the rest of my life with someone I can't talk to, or worse, someone I can't be silent with...and than I married you..someone poles apart of my personality..yet helplessly adorable to fall in love with.. a friend..a partner.. a lover.. all I found in one.. n jana you're that one person for me..
..there were times when I've been so angry or so hurt that I thought my love would never recover...n I said it to you as well..but then, in the midst of near despair, something has happened beneath the surface...a bright little flashing fish of hope has flicked silver fins and the water is bright and suddenly I am returned to a state of immense love again — till next time lol.. I've learned that there will always be a next time..n that I will submerge in darkness and misery, but that I won't stay submerged..n each time something has been learned under the waters; something has been gained; and a new kind of love has grown..better n stronger than before..the best I can ask for is that this love, which has been built on countless failures, will continue to grow.. I can say no more than that this is mystery, and gift, and that somehow or other, through grace, our failures can be redeemed and blessed...with you I learned falling in love with same person over n over again..but every time with a different aspect of that person..n do I need to mention that you're that one person for me my love...
In short this one year with you was a rollercoaster ride...filled with edgy twists..pointed turns..still so much fun to ride..
As for upcoming years..it's not gonna be easy...it's going to be really hard..we're gonna have to work at this everyday...but I want to do that because I want you...I want all of you..together.. forever.. You and me... everyday...I love you so much meri jan
