Wows

To love and to cherish
For better or worse
In sickness and in health

So easily and eagerly said,
So hard to carry out.

When we said our marriage wows, it came so automatically and natural on that fateful day that we give it no second thoughts
If we are lucky we never have to recollect what we promise on the day Oh what bliss that will be.
In times of turmoil and junctions of our life, when we have to face the truth and make a choice, demonstrate or carry out this promise, only then do people find it so very hard. When we have to choose, when we have to put our foot down, when we have to show we meant it, the weight of that promise weight so heavily upon us that we wish all evidence of it is gone.

life is fragile, love is even more delicate. If we don't conciously define what we want and place our priority, all could be confusing and painful especially when others are selfish.

And with a soft blow, all can go up in smoke. In the end, we found out that we are the only losers but by then, all is lost and gone.
