Journal Jar Prompt #9

Let me tell you what my parents did . . .

My parents got married to each other even though it was an arranged marriage. My parents got married even though they're cousins (tee hee--it's great fun to tell people this after they pontificate about cousins marrying cousins and the potential for genetic defects--I like telling them that I have a 3rd arm tucked into the back of my pants). My mom pretty much had to marry my dad or never, under the threat of my grandmother, date in this country again. My mom acted as a "human passport" to get him here. My parents managed to even like each other despite all this. They're coming up on their 50th wedding anniversary. Congratulations, Mom and Dad! :)
