Last night we attended a dinner to celebrate our nephew's 20 years of marriage and it got me thinking about marriage.When we got married a vow and commitment was made "to take each other as your lawful wife and husband,to cherish ,love each other in sickness and in health...".that's what marriage is all about and what makes it so special is how two people out of the millions in the world can choose each other and share life's blessings and tribulations together for the rest of their lives.Living together,sharing things ( the good, the bad and the ugly) often brings out the best and worst in people.We are the most familiar with our spouses and its not unusual that the one who understands us the most and shares things with us the most is the other half.
Anniversaries are special in the sense that after so many years of marriage it's the time for renewal,renewal of our commitment to each other,our bond ,our feelings and our passage through life together.Celebrating the anniversary has this special meaning and people who do not know will just look at it as a gathering of friends and relatives.For the two people who celebrate the anniversary its much more than this.
