How does one even comprehend the meaning of 50 years in love with one person, sharing lives together, through thick and think, through ups and downs? What token, what 50th wedding anniversary gifts can possibly convey the full meaning of love, and not sound cheesy and incomplete? It was this question which occupied my mind as I thumbed listlessly through catalogs of gifts for 50th wedding anniversary, looking for the perfect symbol of my affection for my wife.
Many of the 50th wedding anniversary gifts were the standard fare – hand blown glass, some of it really quite beautiful. Oil lamps, necklaces, wine flutes. God, in light of the momentous weight of the occasion, it all seemed like such meaningless junk. All the pretty sparkly things just made me feel dizzy and irritated. I needed something better for my 50th wedding anniversary gift. These wedding anniversary gift catalogs were doing nothing but giving me a headache.
