T-66 Days!

Wedding Day!

Oh my goodness! I cannot believe I am actually getting married!

The fact that my wedding is 66 days away seems so surreal to me!

As a little girl, you dream about the day that you are going to get married - but, I never thought this day would actually come for me.

The previous relationship that I was in had me believing all of the negative things. I would never find love again. Nobody would ever love me. - I REALLY truly believed that I was unlovable! I was emotionally abused and allowed my health, both mentally and physically get totally out of hand!

If any of my readers out there that are going through life and feeling like they are less of a person that what they are because of the person that they are with, do yourself the biggest favor of your life and GET OUT! Do not SETTLE because you are comfortable or because you think you are unlovable - because that is simply NOT TRUE! There are over 7 billion people in this world and I PROMISE you one thing...there is someone special out there, just for YOU! After my relationship ended, I started spending more and more time with my friend, now fiance Aaron. Anyone who knew him or even knew me would never think that we would actually be in a relationship, especially a long term one! - Growing up the personalities that we had were similar AND polar opposites! (you know what they say: Opposites attract!) haha

Truth is, neither of us were broken, but we had both went through a tough relationship and were both honestly heart broken! We had created lives with people who we thought we would be with forever and our families were split apart. We both knew we didn't need a relationship, we needed a friend to chat with and just to be heard - someone of the opposite sex to lean on when we wanted to chat.

Little did I know...I would fall completely head over heels for this man!

I started falling for him, but I was so scared! I knew there was work to be done...not that I wanted to change him, but I knew he was not LIVING life the way that he deserved. I knew he had settled and set himself short for years and I wanted him to see and realize his worth!

Spending time together was my FAVORITE! We had so much fun and I started doing things that I never thought I would - I also started to believe I was beautiful again! Still till this day, whether I am doing yard work or all dressed up - he tells me I am beautiful. He tells me he loves me and he shows it! I do not want to say all of my days with him have been easy! We both had to overcome a lot and realize that our past must stay there and we had to learn and grow TOGETHER!

The moral of this blog today is really to say WOW, 66 days away from marrying my BEST FRIEND and I could not be happier! - I also want to encourage my readers to NEVER SETTLE FOR LESS THAN YOU DESERVE, EVER! Find someone that wants to be the light in your dark day and the smile on your face when you are down! Find someone that makes you laugh and brings joy into your life WITHOUT even saying a word! Also, FOLLOW YOUR HEART NO MATTER WHAT!
