On every wedding anniversary of mine, when I want to blog about it, I find myself coming up short of words to express how I feel. I cast about for phrases and adjectives to bring out best the way I feel and always, always my vocabulary deserts me. I envy people who write with such beautiful prose, poetry or even pure tongue-in-cheek humour what these moments or milestones mean to them.
Even now when I think back to the five years I have spent with S and what it has made me be or what it means, I find myself choking back emotions and words. I guess I should be content in saying that he changed my life. He's made me a better person. It is a profound feeling - to know that you have first of all changed for a person or a circumstance and that the change has been for the good and that the person has been worthy of it.
And now he is the father to my little, impish daughter and I look at her and look at the genes that have passed on from him to her and I want to give him a tight, tight hug for this gift too. For it is not a matter of a year or five or even a day or a moment. This is the work of that mysterious force that colludes at an astral level to deliver to us human beings the things or people we don't yet know we want. All I can do is bend my head to the Almighty for this beneficence.
For many, many such blessed years to come - A very happy Anniversary to my dear husband.
