10th years Anniversary!!!

Today is our 10th Anniversary. As usual my husband started the morning with a beautiful flower bouquet (that he hide in the garage, because I am very curious) and a romantic card. We usually go for a romantic dinner later however this year is very special because it is our 10th anniversary. We did a

promise that every 10th anniversary, we will honor the love that brings us together.

I cannot believe that I have been married to Angel for only 10 years. It is too short time for all the things we have lived together. We have traveled so much and did so

many things that it felt like 20 years, hahaha!!! Someone asked me one day, what is the secret to keep a marriage in good shape? There are many ways to do it and each of them depend on you and him; however there are some ingredients that are always there: love, respect, communication and sharing.

Love is more than just said “I love you”. Love is a physical, mental, and emotional expression. I would say that sharing is inside love because when we love somebody we want to give him the best of us.

One day a friend told me that her husband was not romantic at all, and she was very frustrated because her life was empty of romance and quite depressing. I asked her what she likes or expect from a romantic event.

Taking time to create special moments

A good marriage is based in thrust and commitments. That is a key to have a long happy relationship because it brings peace of mind. A regular marriage can be a challenge but a second marriage definitively is a challenge plus. We have to understand that some divorced guys come with extra-baggage that they didn’t handled properly and it is a complete mess.  If the key of trust and commitment have been established well then you won’t have major problems because that means you already know the situations that together you must deal to resolve, accept and let it go.

Whatever is your particular situation just don’t allow others to affect your relationship. There is always one or couple bugs in your life that they are not happy individuals and they are always looking for opportunities to create misery to others. If you have those elements in your life, please ignore them and pray for them. If you do that, they will find their own true sooner or later without you do anything because that is the nature of karma.

It is important to take time to create special moments in your life because sometimes we get so busy and we start losing good opportunities to be happier.

My husband and I, we are always looking for opportunities to create good memories. Couple weeks ago we went to Hawaii. It was the first time for both of us. We went to the famous Honolulu. We didn’t plan any particular event in advanced because we want to be spontaneous.  We rent a car so we could go around without any restrictions. We have so much fun. The island was amazing beautiful. It was a paradise with huge tree and gorgeous mountains covered of forest. The beaches were a complete natural beauty. Definitively Hawaii is a good place to create good memories, specially if you like to appreciate the beauties of Mother Earth.

Plan in advance what would you like to do in the holidays and look for a place to visit or something different to do. Build a romantic life around your marriage or relationship. Sometimes my husband does all the arrangements (he is very good doing that) and sometimes I do it. I am so grateful to my husband and I am always ready for our next adventure. The basic idea is to have fun and enjoy the time together.
