The Joys and Saddness of Love

It finally happened. Our interview date at the consulate has been set. It is happening on the 26th of June. This news has sent my life into a whirlwind of emotion. I so dearly love Tamuna that it was one of the most joyful occasions in my life and at the same time it has a bitter edge to it. My love is sacrificing so much for our love that I cannot help feeling sympathy for her and her family. I absolutely love and adore her family and they have welcomed me as a part of the family and this leads to an inner turmoil in my feelings. I am so happy that there is a light at the end of the tunnel but at the same time I am sad for her mother and for her family. You see when she gets here she will not be allowed to leave without special permission. This means that if we want to visit what has now become our family we have to go through red tape just to do it. We are planning a trip to see our family for Christmas but if we do not get the permission then she is not allowed to leave the country. All of this leads to it being one of the happiest and saddest days of my life. Her mother is one of the most wonderful people I know and has done a lot for us. She has been the closest thing to a mother I have had since my own mother passed away this makes it really hard for me because other than Tamuna her mom is going to be the one that is affected most by this news. There are many other people that I have come to care about that this is going to affect that I cannot help be saddened and overjoyed by it. The only solace I can find in the sadder aspects of it are that no matter what I will spend my entire life not only trying to make her happy but also to make the family I have wandered into happy as well.
