A New Spark


After 7 and a half years of marriage my wife and I have fallen into a rut.  Each day seems to be the same work,school, homework, sports.  We lost ourselves in our children and in our daily lives.  I found that we were always angry and bitter at the world.  We never had enough of what we wanted.  One big fight changed it all.  I realized that nothing could replace my family.  Not friends, not money, not anything.  I have been trying to look at things from my wifes point of view and her from mine and its seems as though we have a new respect for each other.  I knew I always loved her but now I have fallen in love with her all over again.  We are like a couple that just met and are starting all over again.  I am greatful I have a second chance because not a lot of people get that.  I plan to live out the rest of our marriage as if we are on our honeymoon but we have two beautiful kids to share the journey with.  For those who feel as though they are in the same position as I was  I hope they work it out because life is so much sweeter when you know it can be taken from you at anytime.  Even though we still have many things to work on I am hopeful that we are now on the right path.  I am a true believer in the saying "you dont know what you have until its gone". O ya and this is my new saying I will live by  "A happy wife makes  a happy life" Some men might not agree with me but trust me you'll learn.
