Will you promise to continue to pursue your personal goals and
dreams?

Marriage is not entirely the end of
the person you were and the start of
a new you. Sure, being in a serious
relationship does require a person to
change in many ways.
Yet, there’s a part of us we can
never, under any circumstance, let
go of the dreams, wants and hopes
we have — our personal goals —
must stay alive.
When we lose them, we lose
ourselves and inevitably lose the
person we love. Marriage isn’t just
an “us.” It’s also a you and him/her.
You have to juggle being the person
you have always been with being a
part of a larger whole. It’s not easy.
But it is necessary.
