Us Forever


          Last night as I caught up on this week's episode of This Is Us I found myself crying just about the entire episode. I'm pretty sure I've never had Marc watch any of the episodes, but if I needed him to understand how I felt about him, I'd send him the watch this week's. When you watch movies and love stories, they don't feel genuine. This one damn near ripped my heart out. Dr. K is an older doctor whose wife passed away a little over a year ago. He's still learning how to cope with her loss, and it was heartbreaking to watch. You could see how much she meant in his life. Not only as he spoke to her as if she were still alive, not only as he told his son to quit telling him to get over her death, and not only as he confessed how he didn't want to be without her any longer. Marc and I haven't even been married a full month yet, and this episode spoke volumes to me. I could only imagine living together for 50+ years and having to let go. 26 days of marriage would be enough to have me feeling the way Dr. K did. There is something about older couples that get me super emotional. Here's just a sneak peak of the episode. Only watch up to 1:56. If you can, go home tonight and watch the entire episode. It's called "The Big Day". Let me know what you think bub <3

With love always,
Becca Colón

P.s. If you don't at least get teary-eyed for the entire episode, I'm judging you haha <3 I love you bub

So close! We are so close to the end of the month. We've almost made it. I will finally have time off, and won't be as tired as I've been. Thank you love for sticking with me this month. I know it's been hard. With all of my sleepiness and staying on campus to get work done, even when we see each other, I feel like it lasts for just a few moments. There is also something super exciting about seeing our diplomas next to each other. For two, first-generation college students, we sure have done well for ourselves. Teamwork makes the dream work right?? I think so! It definitely helps to have a superstar on the team anyway. And by superstar, I mean Mr. Do-It-All-Himself-Colón. Thank you for being such a great teammate! With love always, Becca Colón P.s. I still don't know why you don't complain about the accent mark!

Sometimes we see, read, or hear things that we try to get across. For me lately, I've been trying to get across what young love means, and the beauty of it. Today, I came across another blog, where someone worded it in simplest form. Short, sweet, and to the point. Thank you Anonymous, I couldn't have said it better myself. " The question is asked: “Is there anything more beautiful in life than a young couple clasping hands and pure hearts in the path of marriage? Can there be anything more beautiful than young love?” And the answer is given: “Yes, there is a more beautiful thing. "It is the spectacle of an old man and an old woman finishing their journey together on that path. Their hands are gnarled but still clasped; their faces are seamed but still radiant; their hearts are physically bowed and tired but still strong with love and devotion. Yes, there is a more beautiful thing than young love. Old love.” " With love always, Becca Colón P

Exactly one year ago today. The time has truly flown by. I've posted this video a few times before, but we're finally at it's anniversary. What a year it has been love! Crazy, to say the least. We legit spent majority of our first year together apart. It's okay though, we made it back to where we need to be. I love you bub! With love always, Becca Colón P.s. Looks just like Rachel from Suits haha.
