Love

We all talk about how we want to be in love. Then when we finally get our chance for love we end up comparing it to everything we think or see. We let the tiniest things get in the way like we have rose colored glasses on and when it doesn't go our way. I love my husband so much and when we got divorced it wasn't because of a lack of love.

It was because of a whole lot of other things but it's also because I compared everything to other people. My marriage wasn't enough, where we were living wasn't enough, our financial situation wasn't enough, and the list could go on for days. I had my rose colored glasses on and had decided I wasn't going to work on our relationship because I had something better out there.

I got into an argument with him and he said something that hit me like a bullet. "You were always enough Haley. I didn't need the big wedding or anything else as long as I had you." I wanted to house, the babies, the nice cars, and everything in between. I loved him but I allowed other people to get into my head and the expectation that people made me believe was reality.

I should've been looking at the fact that our love was enough and that all the other stuff didn't really matter because I have always been 100% enough for him. I'm lucky that he loves me so much that he decided to try and give this our all. I have no idea what the future holds or where I will be in a year. What I do know is that I love him more than I ever thought I could love someone. I am excited to see where I end up no matter what that looks like.
