36 Wonderful Years

Soul-mates are people who bring out the best in you. They are not perfect but are always perfect for you. ~Author Unknown

Today, my parents celebrate their 36th Wedding Anniversary. I love that I can say my parents have a strong, healthy marriage that is filled with joy and laughter. They are great examples for how marriage should be done. Especially in the society we live in where divorce seems to be the thing to do when one party doesn't get his or her way, or when reality hits and the fantasy ends; I am proud to say my parents are still married. It seems to be a rarity, which is very sad to me. However, they know how to fight fairly, they know how to enjoy each other, and at times, how to tolerate each other. More importantly, they love each other well. They are friends, the best of friends, and just enjoy walking through life....together.

That is such a blessing! My parents are still in love and together too (38 years) and I know how you feel to be able to look at them and still see the LOVE and friendship there. A healthy and strong bond. So special to still have that these days! Happy Anniversary to them.
