In the Spring, My Husband and I Made a Beautiful Promise: In Our Lives Together, We Will Guide Each Other
The dormant trees have awakened, with lush green leaves gathering strength, preparing to meet long-missed friends. The earth's icy cloak has melted, and the soil's essence has transformed into sprites, merging with the air. I saw the shadow of spring, smelled the flavor of spring.
I long for spring, because this spring is different from previous springs. I long for spring, hoping that the revival of all things in spring can dispel the dullness of winter, let the sunshine penetrate my heart, and bring it warmth. I long for spring, hoping that the vibrant vitality of spring can soothe the chaos of life, let spring colors surround my eyes, and let it feel that life is still full of color.
Life always likes to make us choose, especially for married adults with children, when making each choice, we will trigger our obsessive-compulsive disorder, thinking and thinking again and again. The most difficult question for us is 'one-city work, one-city living'.
When in love, long-distance relationships are painful, and long-distance living is even more painful after marriage. My husband works in Beijing, and I bring up my children at home. Because of long-distance living, we have become the most familiar strangers. Because of long-distance living, we are lazy to talk to each other, perhaps because we don't have time, or perhaps because we don't want to add trouble to each other, or perhaps because we feel that saying nothing is of much use, distant waters cannot quench near thirst.
After my husband's rental house in Beijing expired, he decisively cancelled the lease and started working in Beijing, living in the county town. He gets up at 5 am and leaves at 5:40 am. When he leaves, it's dark and the air is cold. He brings back a lot of fatigue from Beijing, and it's almost 9 pm when he returns home, and my children are already asleep. I asked my husband: 'You are so tired, why don't you rent a house in Beijing?' My husband smiled and said: 'Because I see you two, I'm not tired!' Compared to lonely drifting in Beijing, having a sense of home is more reassuring. Marriage can find a home for a drifting heart, this might be one of the reasons why 'marriage' is demonized, yet still appealing.'
Spring is not only the season of budding life, but also the season of love budding. Marriage cannot destroy love, love has just changed into another form. Love is not about being spoiled and indulgent, nor is it about unlimited tolerance and pampering, love has lost its previous romance and sweetness. Love is no longer the appearance of a lively, inexperienced girl. Love has experienced the heat of summer, the coolness of autumn, and the cold of winter, and when it comes to this beautiful spring, love has become a mature and steady woman. This kind of love can let us walk together, facing the wind and rain in the future.
In spring, I don't want to be a red bean, I can only be an item to express longing for love, I want to be a cotton tree, with my beloved, share the cold waves, storms, thunder, lightning; together enjoy mist, flowing clouds, rainbows. Gazing at the romantic spring, I thought of the appearance of love, happiness as I am, loved and cherished. All pain and sadness have turned into a wisp of smoke, blown away by the wind. In the sunny spring, my beloved, please teach me for the rest of my life!
