Something Stronger

Fall in love. Get married. Have a baby.
That’s the way it’s supposed to happen, right?
When I married my high school sweetheart, I thought all of my dreams were coming true. We loved each other and life was perfect, but marriage is about compromise, and I seemed to be the one who was always giving in.
The sacrifices were small at first, but as the years passed by, they became bigger and bigger, until I couldn’t ignore it anymore.
Because sometimes, love just isn’t enough.
Sometimes, you have to search for something stronger.
