We all go through difficult times in our lives, be it professionally or personally, but more often than not the thing that helps us through it is our loved ones.
For one woman, who is known on Imgur as mollywho, it was her husband who lifted her sprits with a simple gesture.
According to Metro, he listed all of the things he loves about her on a mirror in their home. (Quite the opposite to THIS guy who told the world what makes his other half cry.)
She shared the message online and explained: “I’ve been juggling a LOT lately. Trying to move up the (ahem) corporate latter.
“Just got married. Couldn’t afford a wedding. Family is sparse. Falling out with friends, yaddadyadda. But, the thing is, amidst all the struggle, my husband has relentlessly tried to cheer me up. I’ve not been the east person to deal with.
“In fact, sometimes I’ve said the cruelest most hateful words to my new husband. But he somehow forgives me every time. I have a long journey ahead of me, and I know he probably realizes I’m mentally ill.
“But he holds my hand, and he tries his best. Today when I came home from a trip to SF, I flopped onto my bed in tears. I looked to me left, and saw these words painted all across my mirror. I think he wanted me to remember how much he loves me. Because he knows how quickly I forget.
“He knows I struggle to see good in the world, and especially the good in myself. But here it is. A testament and gesture of his love. Damn, I needed it today… [sic].”
The note reads:
Reasons I love my wife
1) She is my best friend
2) She never quits on herself or me
3) She gives me time to work on my crazy projects
4) She makes me laugh, every day
5) She is gorgeous
6) She accepts the crazy person I am
7) She’s the kindest person I know
8) She’s got a beautiful singing voice
9) She’s gone to a strip club with me
10) She has experienced severe tragedy yet is the most optimistic person about humanity that I know
11) She has been really supportive of my career choices and followed me each time
12) Without realising it, she makes me want to do more for her than I have ever wanted to do for myself
