We Cried Together

On this night we cried because our life is so much about being apart when we really don't want to be apart from one another.  We sacrifice our time and our patience for a greater good.  Upon my husbands return from Ghana he was immediately called back to work and our time was once again stumped.  I sometimes feel so frustrated about how we have to live in order to make it in this world today.  I look at all the stars who make millions and the sacrifice they make to have all that they do and I associate my life in the same manner.  My husband is a hard worker and he is dedicated to our family.  He works outside the home and makes very good money.  With our life and the lifestyle we live we need to have this arrangement.  He as I said once before supports me going back to school and his family back home in Ghana.  I know on this day we were so sad and we cried together for the lack of time we have now a days.  There is no other way right now for things to work.  I offered to go back to my old profession (Administrative Assistant) but my husband refused me to return back to that type of work, because of the pay and my unhappiness.  We cried and we shared our most intimate thoughts this night and it felt good.  I realize that no matter how far we are we are always together in heart, mind, body and soul.  He longs for me more each day and I adore how he loves me.  Life is often somber with us and I am in a good place with all that we are doing and plan to do.  I often step outside myself and look down on us and shed a tear for all that we miss and all that we have coming at the same time.  Our tears this night were tears of sadness for the loss of us being together, but happy days are still ahead of us and we will see the day we will live together as one.  May Allah continue to bless and watch over our union and carry us through to see better days.  Ameen, Ameen.
