Today we celebrate our 2nd year anniversary (true anniversary in the matrimonial sense, and not the relationship-ial sense)! It's been 2 years since we have declared our love formally, bound together for eternity, and these 2 years have been quite the ride that I would not have any other way. The 2 year period, so it has been said, is a testament to longevity. Should you last beyond 2 years without hesitation, second thoughts, or wanting to kill yourself because of the other, then you have succeeded pretty much for the rest of the marriage. Other school of thoughts have lent itself to the notion that the first 2 years are the honeymoon years and that the tougher years are to come after this anniversary.

I must say, regardless of that milestone, I couldnt be happier that this day has arrived, that we are still together, and it feels like we will be together for much, much longer.... the length of time we have known each other is readily apparent in the sense that the people that we have known have grown up, friends have become lovers, lovers have become haters, and those who are still happy together, continue to be happy together. I hope that we will be one of those people that can look back 50 years from now with fond memories of this milestone, and say 'we survived one of those!'
