Blind Date

Have you ever made a decision on a whim that turned out to change your life? If so, what was that life-changing decision? Can you imagine what your life would be like if you hadn’t made that decision?

I don’t tend to make decisions without thinking about it carefully first. I reckon one decision would be going on a blind date to meet my husband. Taking a chance on someone I never met, and months later being engaged to him. We’ve had our ups and downs, but thirty-five years of marriage is something we can both be proud of.

Without meeting him, I wouldn’t have had children, or be a proud grandmother.

He changed my life because we both have an understanding of each other – his parents were pleased to have a woman in the family. I found a great friend in my mother-in-law, and my father-in-law reminded me of my own dad. We were meant to meet, have our lives together.

Not everything has been perfect, but we are perfect for each other.

I’m not sure what life would have been like, but I’m glad I met my husband.
