My Dearest Diane,
Like joke like joke we both are getting older. Today is your birthday
and once again I can't help but to
celebrate you in the open, what I have always done for the past 37yrs of our
married life. Celebrating our extraordinary life together. I hope that our
togetherness over the years have taught some people about perseverance,
tolerance, discipline and love.
You know our
marriage has not been a bed of roses like that, but we have stayed loyal
together through all kinds of terrible weather, never strayed, through all the
challenges, battling so many winches and wizards, through tick and thin, even
in poverty and great hopelessness. I have been our soldier, protecting this
fragile thing called marriage. E no easyooooooooo.continue
Thank you for
standing by me through all my bullshit, my ignorance and my mood swings, the
fact is that I can never live with anyone like me but you have managed to
survive 37yrs of me. Sometimes am not sure I deserve you, some other times I
feel I could have done better or you could have done better. However, I trust
that you have the stomach to still tolerate us for another 37yrs. Frankly,
after 3 failed marriages, so many krugeegee waka, I think God did indeed bless
me with you.
You know it's not all the time that I will be sweet and
romantic like you would like me to be, because sometimes my eyes dey see pepper
for this nonsensical environment.
However, one thing you can take to the bank is that am
serving "Life" with you.
You have taught me that marriage isn't about how compatible
couples are but how they deal with their incompatibility. You are one of the
things in my life that I got right, my ultimate merit badge. I know what your
life here means to me, it's been like a blessing sent from God that I can truly
see.
God through you has shown me who I need to be. Thank you my
wife and a very Happy BirthDay to you, may we never grow old. If no be YOU, Na
who.
Your Loyal Mugu( for life )
Charly.
