Mr. and Mrs. - One year milestone

Wow! It definitely doesn't feel like we have tied the knot 1 year ago.

I have dedicated this post to all who wanted me to share the experience of being married and there is obvious reason of wanting to document our anniversaries in cyberspace :)

Wedding anniversaries are really special to every couple. But the first one? It comes only once and it happens to be much more special than the others as the first year of marriage is often considered as a year of making a honest and strong bond. As you celebrate this special day which reflects on both the delicate and hardy aspects of your marriage and your love for one another.


The year
However when somebody goes for or thinks to go for a marriage, lot of insecurities come where the girl only hopes that her life doesn't change irreversibly, hopes if she would still follow her dreams, and most importantly hopes that she will get The man of her life.

And so, with all the anticipation, tensions, expectations, hopes and dreams, I met him and THEN we started talking , talking and then we did not stop talking !!

I can't really point out and pick a reason for why i went for him but when i think of little little things, i have discovered so much about myself after i have been with him.

Marriage is not easy for anyone as we all know that! I am sure, for him it was very difficult to find that person in this world who can give him that impression that she could be a wife, a mother, a daughter-in-law like daughter, a sister. But in spite of all those expectations, now i actually feel he has always been with me beyond any rights or wrongs, beyond any obvious set of expectations.

Before we could realise anything, we were tied up with shopping , decor , The rings , and what not? I will be the first to admit that we spent more time in working than we did in celebrating that special day. Probably because we wanted it to be the most special one.

But along with the rituals, I made a confession- a silent one. Made it to him as i looked into his eyes, flash lighting up his face and making almost impossible for me to watch the expression.

I really couldn't have dreamt you up if i tried. God definitely out did himself and sent me his best. I am grateful. I feel and am happy. I am beyond blessed ! 

                                                                        The day

I remember a friend of mine wrote that success tastes good, if someone special is there to share it with you. So be it the day i made my first meal in my new home or the day i again started working or the day we completed a year together. Every joy is just doubled due to his presence.

The day was filled with phone calls and facebook wishes where also every other person (including us) was part of legendary cricket match of all time favourite Jodi: India v/s Pakistan. India's victory was like cherry on the cake for us!

The day followed by HKV lake visit then dinner at ITC maurya with lots of quality time together. For the charm of day lies in the memory which we create .. In the memory which would last !!

It was what i like to call "Imperfectly Perfect"

It sounds a little selfish but i feel like i can be anywhere with him , can do anything and we could laugh a lot .. a lot !

Hubby, thank you for just being 'You' and making me 'Me'. You are the most beautiful human being and i am so glad that i can spend rest of my life with you.

Years from now when i am reading this i just want to remember that when i married him i felt that i am marrying to the most perfect man and this essence is always going to be there. So, whatever little things would end up getting in our way. I would just pray that i can keep my focus on how i see him today.

To all our family and friends who took time in their day to be with us, to our family and friends who desired to be with us but just can't physically; to everyone who congratulated, greeted and wished us the best- we are overwhelmed with your love and blessings. Down the memory lane we'll always cherish the time spent with all of you as we keep crossing more milestones of our marriage.


As it is said :

Live slowly, think slowly, for time is a mystery.
Never forget that love requires that 

you be the greatest person you are capable of being,
self-generating and strong and gentle-
Your own hero.

Love demands the best in us.
To always and in time overcome the worst 

and lowest in our souls.

Love the world wisely.It is love alone that is the greatest weapon
And the deepest and hardest secret !!
