Surprise!

   I scheduled the post to be published when I'm in Bangkok. Although we have already celebrated and exchanged gifts, I thought I would leave you a note here since you self-proclaimed you read this once a day.

  Dad told me that one of the heart-felt things he had learnt from marriage was that one should never win an argument at the cost of the relationship. It seems like a natural truth but perhaps it is a truth difficult in execution. Still, you have always done it. You have always let me win. Especially when I'm unreasonable, especially when I'm ridiculous. You never take it to heart, never take it personally, you see me, in all my fullness, and embrace it.

   You see all my mistakes as beautiful.

   I want you to know that every day I try to be a better wife. I want to make you so very happy.

  Even now, I don't believe in the One. But, if I can only have one valentine, it will surely be you.
