Have you ever envisioned that perfect thing... relationship... marriage... car... house...? Whatever it may be, it always ends up having its' underlying problems. Insecurities... lack of communication... the windshield wipers squeak... or the leaky faucet... Well those little things that don't show up to the everyday person that sees these things will eventually cause some major problems. We take things for granted all the time. We think that what everyone else is always better than what we have because what we have, we see the flaws with.
We may not always be happy with what we have, but we have what we have. We chose it and deep down inside we are glad to have what we have. I have kind of come to this conclusion with my relationship.. LOL ...
I love him don't get me wrong and I am happy with what God has given me. I just know that I look around a lot. I compare my relationship to what others have and sometimes wish I had what they have or that he would treat me the way they get treated. But I don't know if I would know what to do if one day he became this mushy love guy that treated me that way. I like it but I think that it might scare me and think something was wrong. I am happy with what I have. Through the arguments we grow closer... through the trials we get stronger... and I love that. We also both understand that this is not going to be easy, EVER. And we accept that. We know we are in it til the end and there is no walking away. We might feel like we need to step back but never walk away. So the next time your windshield wipers squeak or your faucet is dripping while you are trying to sleep... or those insecurities creep up on you... don't let there be a lack of communication.... Stop and thank God for what He has given you and ask Him to help you appreciate the things that make it unique... :)
