Sjona and I are coming up on our 1 year anniversary. As much as anything, it is a good time for us to reflect on how we have grown as a couple, and how we can still grow.
It is easy I think, in a marriage, to take the other person for granted, to become too comfortable with their acceptance and fall into the less inspired side of ourselves. It is too easy to be mean and hurtful with each other and not even realize it. It takes vigilance to always be thoughtful of the other person and continually regenerate loving feelings and gestures. No matter how much you think you know the other person and their capacity, it is important to always rediscover them and not limit them to what you think you know from the past; because both people are always growing.
Sjona continually surprises me. The more I know about her the harder she is too predict (in a good way). I am grateful that I have been given the chance to grow and develop with a beautiful soul in mutual love and respect.
