Just went on a 2-day resort stay and it did feel special for many reasons.
First of all, it was a much needed break for me and my husband after almost 3 exhausting months of work without any real gap. We were both busy constantly trying to match each other’s timings and routines.
And yes, the place was beautiful. Stunning beach views, pleasant weather, peaceful stay… all of that definitely added to it.
But strangely, what made me feel most content had nothing to do with the resort itself. It was us.
After the first day there, we were obviously tired and slept early. But I suddenly woke up around 1:30 am and noticed my husband was awake too. He said he wasn’t that sleepy so I thought okay… let’s just sit for a while and maybe go back to sleep later.
We made some green tea and sat in the balcony around 1:45 am and then we just… started talking.
No phones. No distractions. No rush.
Before we realised it, light slowly started falling in and that’s when it hit us that we had been sitting there for hours talking through the night with ocean waves in the background and chilly weather around us without even checking the time once.
Just sitting there talking about the future we want to build, our dreams, the kind of life we want to live, the kind of people we want to become…and whole conversation somehow was about us and stayed around us.
Not gossip. Not complaining about life. Just… us.
And honestly, I don’t even know how that became such an interesting conversation for hours . It might sound extremely boring to anyone else listening.
But I think what made it beautiful was realising how in sync we had become.
We both knew that sync didn’t happen magically. It took effort. Time. Adjustment. Growing together gradually over years. That night just made us realise how much we both grew up within this marriage.
I think we both slowly started rubbing off our personalities on each other.
I’ve picked up a little of his carefree nature now… his eat well, sleep well, don’t stress too much attitude and he has picked up a little of my ambitiousness.
How love slowly changes people in very small ways without them even realising it.
The stay was mostly just long walks holding hands near the beach shore and lawns, with a lot of love and strange calmness in our hearts.
Just finding someone you can sit beside for hours doing absolutely nothing except dreaming about life together already feels like a flex.
