Love Can Sometimes Come Down Hard
Everybody knows that when your relationship is fresh, all you are concerned about is keeping everything in good standing. Pleasing your other half is of tantamount importance. But along the way to this pleasant path of peace and tranquility, sometimes there can be some sacrifices that are really quite painful.
The way you were always used to living has been replaced with an eagerness to please your wife. After all, marriage is supposed to be a sacrifice, right? If you really love someone, you will not mind making the necessary sacrifices to please her, right? But as you mold yourself into this new man, some of the things you loved about the old man, slowly make their exit from your life.
The plan is for her to go ahead of you to the new home you bought only a few states away. She will prepare things there, while you finish things up here. Money is tight, so the idea is for you to do a few last odd jobs so you will have enough to make the move. She took everything to be kept with her, and left the things to be thrown out in boxes on the porch.
The next day she kisses you goodbye. She boxed up everything to be thrown away, and says she will see you in three days to start your new life together, and she really loves you. Everything is boxed up. As you start to put the things out on the truck, you notice, there is your best golf instruction book, the one you learned to play from years ago, so dear to your heart, and now put into a box to be thrown away.
It is still fresh in your mind, that you need every penny you can make, so you rationalize sacrificing the book. You make yourself believe it is for the best, and that your past may have to go in order to enjoy your future. After all, she is well worth this small sacrifice. But then, you look again, and a little further down into that box, is that old leather watch that was given to you by your Father because he was so proud of the way you pitched when your little league team won the pennant years ago.
You continue with boxing things up. Two of your most prized possessions were ready to leave your life for good. You feel a little nauseated. You are really in a mild state of shock. Then as you put out the last box, and you are milling around your truck, you pull out a rhodium plated ring that has been hidden in the thumb of a baseball glove.
You realize you are going to be sick. You wonder if there should have been some other way. How many regrets could one person rack up in only a matter of about twenty minutes? Your mind ponders the difference between love and sacrifice, was it all worth it. She would never miss those things, but they meant very much to you. Who really loses? A huge part of your life was just about to disappear forever, and would have been on its way in about twenty minutes. Love can really be cruel sometimes.
