Marriage isn't beautiful !

Marriage is ugly, you see the absolute worst in someone.  You see them when they're mad, sad, being stubborn, when they're so unlovable they make you scream.  But you also get to see them when they're laughing so hard that tears run down their face, and they can't help but let out those weird gargling noises.

You see them at 3 AM when the world is fast asleep around you--but you're not.  You're eating in the middle of the kitchen floor, giggling.  You get to see the side of them that no one else does, and it's not always pretty.  It's snorting while laughing, it's the tears when it feels like it's all crashing down, it's the farting, it's the bedhead and bad breath, it's the random dances, it's the anger and the joy.  Marriage isn't a beautiful thing, but it is amazing.

It's knowing that someone loves you so much, and won't leave you even though you said something nasty.  It's having someone have your back no matter what.  It's fights over stupid stuff, like someone not doing the dishes or picking up after themselves.  And it's those nights you fall asleep in each others arms, feeling like there will never be enough time with them.  It's cleaning up their throw-up, or just rubbing their back when they're sick.  It's the dirtiest, hardest, most rewarding job there is.  Because, at the end of the day you get to crawl in the bed with your best friend, the weirdest, most annoying, loving, goofy, perfect person that you know. 

Marriage is not beautiful, but it's one Heaven of a ride.
