Do not be my leader. Do not command. Walk with me and be my peer.

"All I feel now,
Is the weight of the day,
I need you with me,
To push it away,

When we disappear into each other,
Our Colors appear and bleed into one,

Fade into me, fade into you,
Two of us melting together until we become something new,
We can escape,
And watch the world chasing to find us,
Both of us hidden from view,
If you, fade into me, fade into me.

When I'm broken,
You're the one thing I need,
Like an ocean,
Feel you crash over me,

When we disappear into each other,
Our colors appear and bleed into one,

Fade into me, fade into you,
Two of us melting together until we become something new,
We can escape,
And watch the world chasing to find us,
Both of us hidden from view,
If you, fade into me

Let go, fall in,
Drown in the moment with me,
Sinking 'til we start to breathe,

Fade into me, fade into you,
Two of us melting together until we become something new,
We can escape,
And watch the world chasing to find us,

Fade into me, fade into you,
Two of us melting together until we become something new,
We can escape,
And watch the world chasing to find us,
Both of us hidden from view,
If you, fade into me.
Fade into me.
Fade into me. "

For the majority of the time, I do feel like the husband and I have such a relationship. Whereby we lean on each other to survive the curveballs that the world throws at us.

That is until religion comes into play.

Then I know I am alone.

I know I have made a choice and I have to live with it. But compromise is a word that should not exist only in MY dictionary. It is one that should exist and be practiced in each and everyone's lives. Your religion should never be above others. Your way of life does not trump mine. My culture is not second to yours.

I will not budge and be pliant to all of your (and your family)'s needs and desires. For I have my own life to live.

Yes, I have made a choice. But at the end of the day, nobody will carry the burden of my sorrows or my sins, but myself. So, for this I shall live life the way I choose.
