The lifetime commitment to have and to hold from this day forward is a vow of unending love. However, how much of this vow stays true when life isn’t always what’s expected?
It’s easy to get wrapped up in what the world says is right. Can you even remember the vows in your wedding?

Some people write theirs, others use a more traditional approach.
Yesterday, I was quickly reminded of that pure bliss while sitting in the DMV of all places. Time to get a driver’s permit for our youngest and an intermediate license for our next to youngest.
The sweet couple had “young love” written all over their faces. The groom said with a great big grin, “Today, you get to change your name officially.”
The bride so giddy couldn’t help but lean in for a kiss as she tucked away the paperwork showing their marriage.
The whole time together, their focus was on each other. Much was going on around them, but they did not get distracted. Their eyes and conversation were held close to each others’ hearts.
In those minutes of watching “young love” blossom before me, I was quickly reminded how fragile our relationships are.
At one minute we are consumed with all of our love. But the next, can lead us down the path of distraction or disappointment.
Most of which is the difference of being wrapped up in the world or wrapped up in each other.
If you want your marriage to sizzle for years, you have to wrap yourself up in each other!
The K.I.S.S. ~ Wrap yourself in each other!
Your eyes can’t wonder side to side and be distracted by what the world is offering. When you’re together, you need to be together consumed by the love for your spouse.
Yet we get super busy, and even in the privacy of our homes, we take our spouse for granted. We assume he/she will be around always.
However, if we do not wrap ourselves up in each other, it makes it easier to grow apart as the years pass.
So how can you wrap yourself in each other?
- Keep your love focused. Don’t get distracted by the noise of the world.
- Keep your love fresh. Make time for “just the two of us”
- Keep your love young. Always learn something new about your spouse at least weekly.
To have and to hold from this day forward is a beautiful commitment. And that beautiful commitment requires you to take A.I.M.
