Fifteen years ago, we began building our family. We stopped being just ‘me’ and ‘you’ and became ‘us’.
Marriage, for me, is so much more than simply living together — it’s a mirror of our inner journey. With time and maturity, I discovered that it’s not about 50/50, and that crises aren’t our enemies. They are invitations to grow, to heal our shadows and wounds, and to awaken a more conscious kind of love.
I look at this photo and feel deeply reflective. Two young people chose to start a family (much earlier than was ‘normal’ for our time). I was 24; he was 25.
Our marriage has been a true work in progress. We’ve faced turbulence and had to adjust our course more than once, but through it all, we knew that to persist in love — contrary to what many believe — is also to persist in ourselves. It required surrender, patience, and wisdom. Staying the course is an act of courage and faith.
In every moment, from victories to setbacks, from joy to challenges, each experience has been a portal for growth. Our relationship has constantly pushed us to love with greater truth and less ego, to leave behind the ‘me’ and embrace the ‘us’ and the ‘all’.
Over these 15 years, we’ve chosen that path: to grow, to learn, and to transform — together and within ourselves. How beautiful it is to look back, my love, and see how far we’ve come. Despite the fading collagen, expression lines, grey hairs, and a few extra pounds 😂, we are more united, more connected, and loving each other more deeply every day.
Thank you for these 15 years. Here’s to all the years ahead.
Love you!
