This is exactly how marriage works.

Two of you must remain a work in progress, each looking out for the other.

To truly become one, both parties must be ready to clip off some excesses, fill up some gaps and make amends as much as possible.

It's an error to think that marriage is a ready to eat meal for you, no no, it's an empty pot, you both get the ingredients and start preparing your meal.

What you prepare is what you eat.

Meaning there is no existing sweetness in marriage, you both create it.

Don't get married because you are seeking happiness, marriage won't give you happiness if you ain't happy on your own.

Marriage won't give you peace if you don't have peace in you.

Marriage won't give you joy if you don't have joy in peace.

What you come into the marriage with, is what you will get.

Oh how sweet, when couples look out for each other, when they both allow themselves to work on each other.

100%!! Just as relationships should work. No one is perfect. Life isn’t perfect. However two people can create their own version of perfect by continually communicating kindly with each other. It’s important to be able to share your thoughts with each other. Communicating wants, needs, struggles and everything inbetween! This is especially imperative to do having experienced a different way of living in all aspects of life whether it’s past habits, past expectations or experiences or past relationships. I truly believe if someone wants to make something work, they will but only if both parties are open minded. Assumptions and presumptions don’t work well either. So often there are missed opportunities. Throughout the changes people make, there are tough transitions and sometimes it’s hard to navigate. Kindness, positivity and putting yourself in someone else’s shoes goes a long way! ❤️
