So this picture really sparked my eye. When I first looked at this it made me immediately think of Jared and I's relationship. I believe that we will be the old couple who still giggles, kisses in public, and holds hands together. I want to be that couple anyway. I know so many couples who as they get older and are married for awhile they lose sight of why they even fell in love in the first place. They sleep in separate rooms, don't dare go into public together, and when they are together it doesn't seem like they still have a spark in their eyes for one another. (Granted, there are certain circumstances that keep a couple from sleeping together such as health issues etc. in which case I'm not talking about) I know there are going to be hard times in a marriage and things aren't always going to seem so perfect. I also know that if you truly love someone from the bottom of your heart that you will always work through the hard times to grow together and be stronger. I have been with Jared for 5 years going on 6 already and it feels like we've been together longer. I think the longer you are with someone, the harder it is to keep falling in love with them over and over again each day. It gets harder because we grow comfortable and gain a routine with each other. It becomes easier to forget to do the things you once did for each other. I think though, that as long as you can wake up each morning and be excited that he/she is sleeping next to you and kiss each other goodnight each night that you will remain in love. Of course you have to be faithful to one another all throughout each day as well, which we see is a problem now days. I can honestly say that I will always remain faithful to Jared as long as I live. I will not let situations arise that will compromise our love together. I made a vow on March 24 to love and cherish him UNTIL THE DAY THAT I DIE. It wasn't "until the day I get sick of him and he drives me crazy" and it sure the heck wasn't "to love and cherish him as well as other guys who spark my interest". Marriage is a permanent thing for me, not something to be taken lightly. I see it as a gift. It's a gift to be able to spend your whole life with someone and share every moment together. I'm so thankful that I get to walk through all of life's journey's with Jared by my side. So guys, just remember that when you truly love someone with everything in you, show it, no matter how old you are! :)
