Beach House - Lover Of Mine

Today is my parents' 25th Anniversary. I can't believe it has been 25 years (and neither can they!). Beach House is an awesome awesome band that I know they both like after I showed them this album Teen Dream.

Some thoughts...

- Marriage obviously and undoubtedly is about love and friendship first. Second, I believe, is commitment to your partner.

This is what my generation must come to realize and must strive to work hard at in our current and future relationships.
