Eight Years

Today is our wedding anniversary.  We've known each other for 18years and have now been married for eight. wow, wow, wow!
If someone would have told me ten years ago that I would one day marry my best friend, go through the toughest years of our lives to date, but would one day be happier than we could ever imagine, I would have said "you're crazy."
If someone would have told me that I would marry my best friend and after eight years love him more than I did the day I married him, I would have said "that's not possible."
If someone would have told me that I would marry my best friend, give up all my years of being "miss independent" and become a partner that allows someone else to take the reigns sometimes. I would have laughed...ha ha ha.
Well, I am happier than I imagined, I do love him more now than when we got married, and we are partners in this marriage and life.
Good thing no one told me these things because I probably would have resisted more and got in the way of my future.
