I can’t say our life together has been a smooth sailing, because I’d be lying if I did. There have been too many ups and downs… our hurts and tears give competition to the smiles and laughter. I know, it’s easy to look the other way, but let’s take the time to believe that we don’t hate each other. Let’s make believe that we love each other still. Because when we do that and look into each other’s eyes for just a bit longer, you’ll see that I’m not pretending and may be you will realize that neither are you!

Lovely! No relationship can be a smooth sail without problems . You expressed it well.
That’s true… Shilpa…. thoughts of a similar nature I get of my relationship with my spouse. Have never communicated it…. well your post however brought it out. Maybe shall just make him read it..
A little patience to feel the love is all that is needed keep the love alive! Nicely expressed, Shilpa. π

A good read on relationships and what makes it tick. More power to make it sustain over long terms despite the hiccups that all couples face.

You have this amazing ability to bring our nuances of relationships in so few words, Shilpa. Beautiful!
That’s a sweet one…but I do hope in the competition, the Tears and Hurt finish last, with Love, Companionship, Passion, Care, Joy, Laughter and Togetherness acing the race!
Sweet, real and filled with hopeful new beginnings.
True Shilpa…. Life would be boring if it were too smooth sailing π
Lovely – that effort to mend things. No marriage is all good and it helps to remember that.
Love is never lost – if for a while, it can always be re-found … tender and special post Shilpa thank you ..
yes, all relationships have their ups and downs and you have crisply and concisely articulated them in 100 words.
