The big commitment

You've done it! You've found that special someone, and successfully tied the knot!

Now what?

Before marriage, we all would like to think that as soon as you tie the knot, it's as easy as one, two, three, and you're done... Unfortunately, however, it's not that simple.

Marriage is a give and take, and those first few months can be some of the hardest.

It's all about learning to be with someone and compromising. In class, we discussed how even the little habits take some getting used too. Does the toilet paper roll go over or under? How long does it usually take your spouse to get ready to leave? What side of the bed will you sleep on?

These little things, and many more will be the subject of discussion. But that's the beauty of marriage. You have that time to learn and grow together.

This is a shorter blog post, but that doesn't make it any less important. Marriage is an eternal union, and something that will teach us more than anything else in this life. Learning to compromise and do things as a team is an incredible blessing and opportunity, and one that I look forward to experiencing one day.
