Today marks 11 years since my wife and I said “I do.”

Eleven years of shared laughter and hard conversations.
Eleven years of evolving, growing, and learning how to love better.
Eleven years of realizing that love isn’t just something you feel—it’s something you practice.

There’s something sacred about the moment you sit across from another human being and realize—you’re standing on holy ground.

Not in a church.
Not on a mountaintop.
Not in solitude with your own thoughts.

But right here, in the presence of another person.

There are few things in life we can hold onto with certainty.

Most of what we think we know—our plans, our beliefs, our sense of control—shifts with time and experience. What made sense to us five years ago might seem unrecognizable today. What we once feared might turn out to be the very thing that saved us.
