I’m certainly not old. But I’m aging enough that shit isn’t always working the way it used to. But, at the same time, it’s a beautiful thing to love yourself more through the process.
I am increasingly grateful in all new ways for how long my wife and I have been together (21 years). To have her experience these phases WITH me, each giving you greater perspective for what love actually is.
- From young, energetic, and lustful together.
- To hopeful, confused, and aspirational.
- To experienced, confident, and grateful.
Us both knowing we loved together young, through aging, and she will still be with me walking into whatever phase is next is an incredible gift and comfort to the soul.
