Greetings to you all the wonderful women and men who are going to take part in this challenge, it is my pleasure to make my entry this first week of the steemit engagement challenge. In this contest entry, I will like to talk about the most important man in my life.
Yes, at present, it is a man that matters most to me because the very first person that could have been the most important woman in my life is dead. My mother is late and as such, I have moved on and found solace in the man that married me.
My Husband, @benton3, The most important person in my life
Without mincing words, this is the most important man in my life. I got to know Him 21 years ago but he became the most important man in my life in the year 2007 when we said "I do" to each other and that is 14 years plus now. We have been together till now and we have had beautiful memories together which I will share soon.
He is Mr Enyinnaya Nwankwere, a Native of Umunkolo Mbawsi in Isiala Ngwa North L G A Abia state Nigeria. He is the second child in his family but the first Son. He is now 44 years of age.
Why he is important
He has so many endearing qualities which has drawn him to me. He is so loving and caring, he is also faithful to the vow we took which is to stick to each other whether good or bad. He has stuck to me during the times I was mourning the death of my mother who died in 2013 when my @wizzyboy3 was just 1 year 3 months. The vacuum that was created by her death has almost been closed due to his care and love. I said almost because no one can replace a mother.
One good thing I love about him is the fact that he has not raised his hand against me to hit me or to batter me. We have disagreements but we settle them as quickly as possible. That thought that you are not going to be beaten gives me a calm mind unlike what I hear from other women.
He is also a hard working father, always doing his best to provide for his family. He is humble too. These qualities have truly drawn him to me.
Memories we have shared together
For the past 14 years plus, we have shared amazing memories together. Our wedding day was a wonderful moment for us. But more wonderful memories are all the anniversaries we have shared together. We have been in steemit together, we have done promotion together, we have done contests together, and many more. See the gallery below to see if there l

a fun moment
our 14th wedding anniversary
Looking at these fun memories as presented in the pictures above, it looks as if everything is just rossy. But not, our togetherness has not always been easy but looking at fun memories, every bad memory pales into insignificance. I am proud to be his wife and am proud of him. He is not the lazy type. I am glad he has been there for me all these while. I have made several mistakes that ought to have made him hit me but know, he is not into that. Our togetherness has been blessed with two cute kids and they are all steemians, @fortwis09 and @wizzyboy3.
Conclusion
I have been able to let you know the man that is important to me, I have shared why he is so important to me and the qualities he posses that has endeared him to me.
This contest has strengthened my love for him and the bond has become stronger. What about you my dear friends? Who is the most important man or woman in your life? Let me hear from you @whitestallion @juichi @klen.civil @eliany @patjewell @goodybest @kiwiscanfly @disconnect @haidermehdi @chiabertrand @graceleon @inspiration and so many others. Let me read your entries soon.
Thank you all for your prompt response. Let's see how it goes
This is my introductorypost here
Marriage is such a beautiful experience if you are with the right person. There's a lot of videos flying around on social media about how men maltreat their wives.
I just sit and wonder while watching those videos if actually there was love before they married.
Like what causes the men to hit their wives and vice versa. I wouldn't want to sound barbaric for those that don't believe in spiritual things but then can we say it's spiritual??
I must say to be married to man that treats you right both in good and bad is a blessing from God. I'm happy that you have it and God will continue to bless your family as you celebrate more fruitful years together.
Reading through, I realised that you didn't try to sugar coat that it's been rosy all through. Noting that, as a woman aspiring to be a mother, I should note that.
The good thing about this is that in the long run, the good times in marriage over shadows the bad times and makes it worth while.
You have made very wonderful points here about the way most Men and I will add , even women maltreat their wives and husbands. But I don't want to believe it's something spiritual. It just has to do with applying the advice of the originator of marriage in marriages. He understands our attitude and he is our creator. Not following his advice can be disastrous. Just as we would depend on the instructions in the manual that comes with electric gadgets that we buy in order to use them well, we also need to depend on God's word to succeed in our marriages. Thanks for your wonderful comment. I can't wait to read your entry about the most important man or woman in your life. Let's see how it goes
Women maltreating their husbands should not also be overlooked and I must say it's overwhelming to see that they actually do it.
Truly, they lack God's intervention and once they believe He can help them in their marriages, their marriages will be a lot better.
I've written my own and I hope you'll like it. I spoke about my mum as she's one of the important persons I hold dear.
Wonderful! Let me go and read your entry now
Reading about love bond like this is some zort of encouragement to all of us single😊, and we always wish that we find someone understanding like this in our lives.
Beign married for over 14years now is a very long time and so commendable after all marriage wasn't just a few years something but a life time commitment.
I must say that your marriage is bleesed, the beautiful kids, the peaceful and understanding atmosphere is a huge blessing....😊
I know , it wouldnt have worked like that on it's own no matter the hardwork both of you might have put in place, but i believe that there is a third chord which is strenghtening this bond for you both and please may i use this opportunity to encourage you and your partner to always allow that third chord to lead you all....
You both have been a good example of a good bond, and that is so exemplary and it worth emulating, as a matter of fact, i am copying this friendship style😊.
Both of you are so beautiful and two good friends😊 and your kids too, i pray may this bond and friendship betwen you both continues forever and ever and ever !! ❤
You wanna share with us some tips that helped you both to continue like these for all these years ?😊,
I believe that will help a lot of readers here especially those who are contemplating going into this institution
I don't need to miss this contest even though i don't have a partner😀...
What a wonderful comment! Yes, the Almighty God Jehovah in involved in our marriage. He is inseparable.
I did share some qualities he exhibited and that's same with me too but that is left for him to write one. The contest only said that I should focus on the most important man in my life and as such, his own is first. When the contest talk about marriage, I will surely include that for sure.
I am sure you too are planning to write on the most important woman in your life? I can't wait to read it
Okay, that's fine 😊. All the same, we have learnt great lessons from your post.
Sure, i will write mine soon.
Love is a beautiful thing when you are with the right person. Thanks to Jehovah for giving you such a wonderful, caring and loving husband. Couple will overcome every challenges once they work together in love.
Sorry for the loss of your mother, I'm happy you found solace in your husband.

Jehovah has been helpful because I married someone that shares the same religious values. It can only and always get sweeter as the day passes by

Thank you for your kind comments. It is Jah who gives us the strength to be where we are today
Glory be to Jehovah. You are welcome sir
I couldn't help but smile while reading through and could only imagine how much he means to you.
Seeing you together always gives me hope that marrying your friend is always blissful and it's nice seeing your both kids are active steemians.
Glad to know that God has brought him in to fill in the vacuum left by your mom and I wish you more happy years together.
Best wishes ma
