There's a quote that goes by, "I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned the hard way, that some poem doesn't rhyme and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's gonna happen next".
Every relationship will have a perfect start. We all started with nothing, with no expectations from each other. It was once exciting while being at the exploration stage with each other. When the time goes by, more expectations will fall in and we will start counting what the other half have not done for us instead of being appreciative of each small things in our daily life. Maintaining has always been the most difficult part of the relationship, whether one actually falls out of love eventually. Other pressures and things around that's affecting us will also made us to be more calculative and suppressed.
From how we got close together, chat and thoughts that we shared made us felt that we are compatible in some way but there was the time when I placed no hope on pursuing something beyond our friendship. We started with no expectations towards each other, but just even a small thought like making a cup of tea would make me a happy girl. Eventually things might become a routine, but we still constantly reminding ourselves to say thank you and be appreciative and count my blessings from each other and a thank you message before bedtime every night.
This song brought a significant meaning behind
Every relationship have the 'honeymoon' period, so applies for us as well. Honeymoon period was great when we had fun exploring many coffee places, catching every latest movie in the cinema, and just snuggle to catch a movie on the couch. There were surprises after surprises during special occasions especially during birthdays, valentine's days and random days. But eventually things as such will slipped away once we have passed the period and when we start to get busy about work. Greater commitments even comes in when you buy a place and everything have to be done from scratch.
Here's the special homemade lunch made with lots of love during the honeymoon period.

Well but don't get me wrong. I'm not saying that I don't get any of these anymore during these days, once a while but I'm still glad of it. Surprises will eventually become lesser, even myself I've stopped doing things like preparing a card to be open and read every single day for the things that I appreciate. Making like at least a few handmade stuffs during birthday, I still do just lesser but at least I still appreciate every single thing which is made from the heart.
I would see this as a completely different phase of life. Many couples will struggle in this trial period, I wouldn't say that we don't have any problems, we do ... a lot in fact, just that which are the ones who manage to hold strong and make their relationship through the next phase in life. We have a collection of sweet memories within these 2 years and yet there should be a long list ahead that we wish to explore together in future.
The 2nd anniversary that we made time out of the busy schedule at Sekeping Serendah.
Here we are in another phase of life into buying a place together. Making that very decision wasn't easy, after much thoughts and consideration, having a place of our own is necessary. We are no longer small kids and was decided that having a place is a good long term commitment to have by now. We did went through many hiccups and only manage to get a place the 3rd time. They've always said that 3rd time is a charm. And hey, coincidentally he's my 3rd boyfriend too :)
Nevertheless I'm glad that all my hard work since I started working at 21 years old was really paid off by having this place. At least we both know that we have worked blood and sweat out for a place we can call home sweet home. We painted the whole place with a little help from my cousin, did many things from scratch, fixing things together. Though the surprises was lesser as mentioned, but these were the things that's truly worth, because the experience of us putting up a place together is irreplaceable with any materialistic stuffs. As how we share the same passion in life that we cherish such things in life and not just simply hiring people to get things done. Priceless.
Besides, other than buying the place with our own hard earned money I'm thankful to all my family members who are constantly supportive and sponsored us many electrical items at home. My gratitude to all of them that my house would not be complete with their generosity to us.
There's still many trials ahead of us. Perhaps, what was being seen on the surface was always the good side but the untold story will remain silent. Life was never meant to be easy, but yet we still need to wake up and face life every day. Somethings in life when we don't have an option to change, we will just need to make ways and both party will have to come into agreement into achieving the same goal or dream.
In all, we really did went through much to be where we are today. Whatever that may comes and the existing ones we shall be committed to each other in order to make things possible. There's a long and tough journey ahead of us, for the objections or the obstacles that's going to make us fall again and again, we shall held each other's hand and help each other up. I was really tired and I've thought of giving up in some point of time, but I'm glad that you've held me tightly and assured me that you will not let me go. Never an easy task to find a soul mate in life, whom you just felt so comfortable with and the one you wish to spend the rest of your life together.
To my other half. thank you for standing by me through good and bad times. I still appreciate every little thing and thoughts that you have for me all the time. Thank you for bracing through the trials in life and made me felt that I'm worth. You're one of a kind that I can never find someone else like you ever for that kind of love and caring that you've given to me. You're my one and only and you mean a lot to me and I'll always cherish our relationship. I can't promise you the moon and stars, but I will try my best to stand strong and face whatever that's ahead of us.
