Starting A New Life With Mo...

Starting over can daunting but sometimes life throws you with no other option but to start all over again.

"Will you marry me?" Moses proposed on bended knee at a popular eatery in town and I was so excited that I would be spending the rest of my life with the man I loved the most.

The wedding preparation began, I visited the market a lot of times to buy my wedding dress, hair, shoes, bags and other accessories to grace up my big day.

Two weeks before my wedding, it dawned on me that I'd have to relocate to a new land, where I knew no one except Moses as he told me "We would be moving to Akure." In a very exciting tone.

I had mixed feelings, that kind of feeling that comes with missing your loved ones that you've known for long and starting a new life in a new land and with someone new, who is now my husband.

My wedding day arrived and I had the best time of my life especially when the ordained minister said "I now pronounce you both Husband and wife, this is a new beginning for you, what God has joined together, let no man put apart, now Moses, you may kiss your bride."

That was a new beginning for me and Moses, living with someone who wasn't my sibling or my parent was a new start for me, we had different views, different likes, and came from different backgrounds too and I had to learn to adapt to a new way of life, living no longer for myself but putting the needs of my husband ahead of mine.

More to that, I knew no one there because we moved to a new land, I remember how much I called my sister on the phone crying that I was missing her "Jum jum, I do miss you." She kept telling me that I would get used to the new life and in time make new friends. "Trust me, big sis, it's only a matter of time, you will be fine."

She was right, I made constant effort to adapt to my new way of life, it started when I began buying some utensils to make my kitchen comfortable like the one in my father's name house and my husband bought furniture in the sitting room to make our new house a home.

Starting over is daunting but with time, I adapt and rebuild all I've lost.
