Forever streaks

The world has changed remarkably in the last 20 years. Locally, globally, personally, professionally. Fashion, technology, politics. In so many ways, we are all different people than we were twenty years ago. Perhaps even just five years ago. We’re the same, and we’re different. But change is constant, and over time, change is dramatic.

Yet some things can remain steadfast over time, if we choose. Our attitudes. Our habits. Our sense of humor. Parts of our personality.

And when we’re lucky, our commitments to each other.

Today, my wife and I celebrate twenty years of marriage. In April 2005, we promised faithfulness and love — in sickness and in health, in good times and in bad. We’ve indeed experienced all of that. Together.

It’s a blessing upon blessings.

This blog post can’t contain all the love I feel.

May the streaks you cherish also endure.
