Coming back.

Dear self:

You are now a married woman.
It is everything you dreamed it would be.
It is more.

Yes, it's real
And true
It's the beginning of so much.
And the end of only a teeny part of who you are.
Or were.

You are grateful
And blessed.
You are a wife.

When you thought it was impossible
or too late
or unnecessary
or unfortunate
Your were wrong.

You are humbled.
And imperfect
Living one with an imperfect man
Who is so perfect for you.

Don't you dare forget that.
Even when you complain.
Or fail.
Or live a very normal and ordinary day.

As a married woman.
