- Everyday I think, 'I'm grateful that I get married'. When I was single, I think I would be nice to have somewhere to go home. Since I got married, I feel finally obtained a really comfortable space, where I truly belong to. Whether my condition was horrible, or it were superb; I couldn't feel satisfied for what I have.
