I still struggle with saying my last name. I forget my new identity often, still introducing my self with the wrong name. Thus leading me to yell or overly pronounce my new last name. It's hard. It's not something i thought i would struggle with.
But i like being married. I like having a new way of sharing my spaces, and filling in closets and pockets with memories that no longer just pertain to me. I still have many boxes that i have to go through, to throw out or keep. Everything has a new worth now, because it's not just about my values.
i like being married. It's ordinary in a comfortable way.
