Today I am thankful that, together WE stand.
I count myself as pretty fortunate. Yes perhaps my health circumstances might not always reflect this but that’s just the luck of the draw. My fortune comes in the form of the man who stands by me, with me… Next to me!
Things aren’t always roses, let’s be frank, and we definitely get thrown some hectic curve balls in our relationship but today I sat in my car following an appointment and I chatted on the phone with the man I love and whom I married almost a year ago; I smile as I think about the constant messages we send each other throughout the day, that he checks in on me to see what I’m up to and if I’m ok. I think about how I love seeing his face when he rides home from work (my favourite part of the day) and that he remains calm, centered, loyal and diplomatic in his response to an often little passionate, hot-headed and overwhelmed sensitive soul… And I am not talking about Winston!
My husband Ant makes me calm. He makes me consider things from a different perspective. His outlook is always toward the bigger picture when the ‘doer’ in me often gets stuck in the detail assessing the risk. He makes me excited and he makes me laugh! And more than anything I love to be with him.
My husband is my best friend.
When I think about all that he teaches me, and all that he challenges me with, I’m often left wondering if I provide the same in return.
As we approach our first wedding anniversary, I’m grateful that together we have stood and for the strength and support we have provided each other through some pretty emotional highs and lows a marriage faces when illness is involved.
Life is all about learning and I’m glad that we can be students together!
