Reinventing the honeymoon

Posted on January 28th, 2008 in On Marriage

My wife said something very profound the other day. She said that she felt like she was on a honeymoon.

We have never had a honeymoon. We got married on a Saturday, spent the night in Reno, drive home on Sunday and started moving in to our apartment that night. So our honeymoon consisted of a night in a cheap hotel after driving around the block on the Reno strip and getting so scared of our surroundings that we chose to head back to our hotel. So when I heard her utter those words I thought to myself that it sounded so fitting for our situation.

Our marriage has been totally transformed at the same time as Sandi and I have been transformed. I can totally relate to the idea that we are on a honeymoon. I feel like we are starting to, for the first time, learn about each other. We are exploring one another. We are sincerely trying to figure out who we are. And I am loving it.

If you have not been on a honeymoon in a while, I suggest your try it. It is an amazing marital experience.
