Baggage

Do you ever wish you could start a relationship over, without all the attached baggage?

I was rereading old journals recently and found that after the first eleven months of marriage, I was ready to call it quits. (DH & I were married in 1997.) At that time, DH was working away from home, and I was lonely. I was wondering what the hell I was doing in a relationship where I would never be put first.

Now, however, I am so glad I stuck it out. He's been a rock through good and bad times, and he puts up with all my crap. I'm lucky to have such a great guy.

But there is still some old baggage between us... I wonder if we will ever be able to get rid of it.
