MY FAIR LADY (Author's Reco)

YOU'RE MY END AND MY BEGINNING

JENNIE

Lisa gave me the wedding I wanted.
Simple. Heartfelt. Funny because of her humor as usual that makes me fall in love with her even more as I always express.
And we got our favorite singer to sing for us as I walk down the aisle once again and until Lisa and I had our second dance during the celebration, he sang for us.
Pastor Rick was the one who officiated us.

Our lovemaking that's full of love resulted to another joy. But you know who's happier? Our André and Nate. Because our third baby came to us!
We named her Ellie, short for Eliza.
You know how Lisa was so obsessed with my role on My Fair Lady right?

Lisa did no longer run for President nor any other position in the government.
Instead, we created more organizational groups.
We even go on community service and support charity drives. She always tells me that she doesn't need to be in a government position to help.

We spread the word of God together to random people as we go travel the world. Sometimes we bring our children with us if the place is friendly for them. Lisa is strict when it comes to the kids and I am the cool one. But she knows how to balance it.
She let them figure things out even if it gets them dirty or wounded lightly as long as it won't harm them.
Her parenting skill is admirable.

Her businesses grew bigger but she is more focused on the app she created years ago as it also gives more employment to the people around the world.
The phone she launched also reached other countries in Asia and the USA.

She is so responsible not only as a parent but most especially as a wife to me.
She would check on me from time to time. Makes sure I am okay and never been absent beside me when I am not feeling well.
She would update me of her activities if we're apart. But most if the time she wants us to be together.
Lisa became so clingy. And to be honest, I love it!
She never even gave me a reason to doubt her.
And that's enough.

But there's no perfect relationship.
I still get jealous when women stare at her or talk to her, but Lisa knows how to handle the situation. She would always introduce me to everyone as her wife. She would hold my hand in an instant when she feels someone is approaching her.
That's why we don't fight. Because she would rather initiate a healthy talk and we pray together right away and assure me that I am the only one she loves.
I really appreciate how Lisa is becoming a huge and beautiful part of my equanimity.

Me, I gave up some of my TV jobs. I focused on my restaurants and Lisa and I's other businesses.
I teach theater acting once a month too.
But I am more of a wife and a mother.
I always make sure that they get to eat three times a day with healthy meals and no one gets harmed.

I am happy.
I am so lucky and blessed by this time with Lisa and this family.
I never thought the fear I had in me would turn into excitement as I see her everyday.
Because she never failed to show me how much she loves me in her simple ways. Sincere ways.
And that makes me fall for her more and more.

Lisa is still Lisa. But she surprised me with some traits that bring out something good not only for herself but as well as for our family and other people.

Some would say

"Are you really sure that it's the right decision to marry her again, Jennie?"

"Are you really that stupid for getting back to her?"

"Why it was just easy for you to forgive her?"

Let me tell you this.

Nothing is sure in this world. So have faith.

I am not stupid. I just believed in God and how he molded us.
AND I LOVE LISA. PERIOD.
Not everyone deserves a second chance, yes.
But Lisa keeps showing me that she deserves it even if she doesn't have to prove it anymore.

No, it wasn't easy to forgive her. Never tell me it was easy for me because you were never on my shoes while I was healing.

Have you ever been in a situation that you were broken at the same time so in love with the person who broke you?
And then she came back with strong will and dedication to win you back.
Do you know how I managed to still think right?
It wasn't easy.
No, I did not risk. Again, I just have this faith.
How astounding that person who broke my heart in the past is still the same person who makes it beat stronger and sturdier now.
That's faith.

Even myself can't believe I have forgiven her at the right time, to be honest.

Because if it's just me, I would have forgiven her much earlier and still lived with her and did not continue with the divorce and for sure we will be living in hell and fights until we break each other into bits and nothing will be left.
And so we let God do the planning plus a shimmering magic of time.

And since the day we let him do the job and trusted time, we started to believe that everything just happened for a reason.

And that's for us to realize that true love is not just about the pleasure of sex we get from each other or the number of kisses and I love yous.
Not just the touch and gifts nor the promises and love letters.

But it's about us making God as the center of our life as married couple and there we realize that he's the one who brings good things in our relationship and guides us to become a better version of ourselves as lovers and parents.
Not only that but also as human beings with a mission in this world.

Speaking of mission, I think I got to go now because my Lisa is already waiting for me at the car and we shouldn't be late for our flight going to Israel for our charity work.

And life goes on for us.

"Wounds of the past will eventually heal and all will be alright in time.
'Cause all of this comes with a love that is real, and all will be alright in time.

You never really love someone until you learn to forgive."
