Wedding in itself is a very special aspect of human life. It’s a life time relationship that everyone wishes to have at least once in one’s life. Marriage is an institution in itself that allows two people of opposite sexes together under one roof and within same four walls. This relationship is authorized by the law of the state, the society and other religious authorities. It gives birth to many new relationships in its trail. This relationship is entirely based upon trust. faith, cooperation and above all love. The more the couple stay together, more intense their love and understanding grows. This love and understanding are the ultimate base of the success of their relationship which bring them closer and closer. As the couple come closer and closer to each other, they have the feeling of ‘Two bodies but one soul’ and they become the soul mate and complementary of each other.

 

The date of their Marriage becomes an unforgettable milestone of their life which they don’t seem to forget till they breathe. Every year they celebrate their wedding anniversary without fail. It’s the day and date on which they reconfirm their love, faith, dedication, devotion and faith in each other. Wedding anniversaries have special personal significance. Each additional year is a milestone in the life a couple. The couple waits for the date for the whole year and as it comes closer, they plan to celebrate it in their own way. That day makes them to forget their daily struggles and fills them with the joy and happiness of being together. The husband and wife make their own planning for that very special day of their life.

 

The exchange of anniversary gifts has its own importance and significance. Both the husband and the wife try their level best to buy something for each other that can make them happy and satisfied. This exchange of gifts also give the couple enormous happiness and their love in each other is once again redefined. In the story ‘The Gift of Magi’, the couple sacrificed their most desired belongings for buying gifts for their soul mates. This strong sense of sacrifice for the life partners comes only when it touches the height of selflessness and when the married couple gets the feeling of selflessness for each other, their love becomes true and eternal. These gifts are nothing but the tokens of love for them.

 

A gift’s idea is not to follow traditions or show lavishness. The encoded message of love is communicated successfully when it is chosen and sealed with love for each other. A handmade scrapbook or an album with photos of the most memorable moments in the couple’s marriage may not be an expensive exhibit of love, but there is perhaps nothing more precious than such personal thoughtful gifts. It displays the effort, time and energy one has spent in. It also displays the depth of their love and their care for each other. That’s what makes those moments more and more memorable as well as unforgettable. Both the husband and the wife love and respect the sentiment behind the anniversary gift and treasure it more than anything else.

 

That’s how the love between the two alleys of life gets intensified and becomes the base of their existence on this planet of ours.
