Post 1,318: A Long Term Decision

May 03, 20261 min read

My wife and I had our sixteen-year wedding anniversary last night. And we dated for five years before getting married.

Being with someone for almost half my life is hard. We have had huge highs, and terrible lows. Together. It turns out, no matter how much you love someone, disagreements still happen. Differences about how to interpret what occurred, and about choices yet to be made.

And yet, I made a decision long ago that I am in love with this woman, and I want to spend my life with her. Every time I have thought about that selection, I have been extremely happy I made it.

I don’t know the future. I don’t know what will happen. My hope is, at the end of my life, I will have spent the majority of it with her.

Sticking to a choice can feed its own kind of happiness.
