Old couple, same love

Hello crazy dreamers 👋 How's your weekend? I hope that you really enjoy your Saturday. As I've expected, I becomes a lazy bee today. I've spending most of my day by lying on the bed, I don't know why but it seems that I'm so tired even though I didn't do anything. I'm used to this kind of feeling because it's been a months I guess that I feel that something is missing but I can't figure what's particular thing is it.

January is almost over and we are entering to the month of Love, February. I know that those who have boyfriend/girlfriend is really excited about this special day but we, single out there makes our way to celebrate it. Maybe with our parent or friends. This day is not only for those who have intimate relationship because I do believe that "love" is for everyone. Is anyone here don't feel love at all?

Speaking of love, I have a chitchat with my grandma while we are folding our clothes. She said that their wedding anniversary is on the corner. Even though that my grandpa is already gone, we used to celebrate it as also our way to remember how their love exist. Next month, they will celebrate their 70th wedding anniversary. Before my grandma died ,they celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary. Wow, just imagine 60 years of being together. I was tend to be amaze because it's already a decades. So, I'm becomes curious how they last long so I asked questions to my grandma.

They met when they are still 10 years old when my grandma move to the province. "Love at first sight" that's what my grandpa felt during that time. I can't deny that my grandma is beautiful during her time, she looks like a mestiza girl. So, my grandpa didn't hesitate to woo her. After a year my grandma give her yes. And throughout the years, they got to know each other even better. They also acknowledge each other's flaws and imperfections. Even it's hard for them sometimes because of the unexpected struggles, they overcome it together until they decided to get married. They had 7 children including my Dad and for them, it's the greatest blessings that they've ever received.

" What's the secret?" I asked her nthis question and she didn't hesitate to give me the answer. " There's no particular ingredients for it. It's just a matter that we choose to stay than to end our relationship. Our journey is not easy as what you've imagine, I admit that there's a time that I want to break up with him not because I didn't love him but because it seems that destiny is not on our way. I don't believe in perfect person because I much agree that he/she will choose to be better version of himself if he really wants to be at your side. But you know what instead of following what the destiny gives us, we make our own destiny." While my grandma explained this, I can feel that her love for her husband is still alive. I realize that love is a really choice . Love might hurt us but if we truly desire to stay then suddenly we overcome this together.

Honestly, that's why I admire and appreciate every old couples that I see everywhere. They are the living proof that true love really exists. They might get old but their love for each other is the same , so deep. They symbolizes sacrifices, struggles, patience and love. I admit that I also imagining myself having a partner that will last long like they do. But I'm not rush into it because I believe that it will comes in the right time. I also realize that everyday, we should choose to love. Choose to love despite on the struggles you've been encountered. Choose to love even love don't choose you sometimes . I'm happy to witnessed that my grandparents really did what they say on their wedding vows. " Love truly exists"
