Few months ago, I thought I would be single for a couple of years, although, the thought of being with someone was never short. Who could have imagined me being in a relationship? Or should I say, opted to be serious about it rather that wandering around enjoying the gifts of being single?
A lot of things I could have enjoyed if I were single. First, I could go wherever I want without worrying that someone might be looking for me. Asking permission from your partner was one of my most-hated things to do before. Why couldn’t I enjoy myself being free? And, was it really necessary to ask permission rather than informing your partner on your whereabouts? Second, I could do everything I want in life without thinking if these would affect both of you as partners. An exemplar would be making friends to others – obviously, one of the most well-known issues in a relationship. Why couldn’t I make friends even though the intention was nothing but making friends only? And making friends wouldn’t really hurt your relationship (unless, there’s something in it – but, not me). Third, I could move freely as long as I want without minding the pressure of handling someone with care. I guess this one was the most difficult part to do in a relationship – being responsible at all times. I was afraid of responsibility because I couldn’t do all the things I want. Instead of happily living life as it should be, the presence of your significant other would hurt that fundamental nature of life.
But now, I have realized that loving someone makes me enjoy life more – more than what life has to offer. Love has an unfathomable meaning - not just by being responsible, not just by achieving things together, not just by allowing both of you to be fulfilled and happy, but also, reaching the true meaning of living life to the fullest. Without love, this world would never be a good place to live in.
The feeling is so great to be in love and I would never trade this to anything else that would hurt or ruin all the life’s chapters that we have spent together.
At this point, I could not ask for more. I feel so complete and I thank God for this opportunity He has given me.
