Personal Growth

Personal growth... oh what a fun ordeal... NOT! It's been amazing how much self-realization has occurred since Michael and I got married. We have changed and adapted and grown in the course of almost (Wednesday) 7 months. Michael and I are growing as individuals, as well as a couple, and it's been amazing to look back and see the changes that have happened. But it's not fun to look ahead and see the changes that still need to be made. Michael and I are changing and growing and it's strengthening our relationship. We're becoming stronger, and we're becoming more aware of how what we do/say effects other people, especially each other. It's not always fun, but it is definitely necessary!

Great post! Very glad for both of you. As someone who is married 18 years, just wait until you look back over even a longer period of time. It's amazing how it is personal history in the making.

Thanks for the insight! The thought of 18 years seems so long :-) And congrats on being married so long-- that's impressive!
