the anniversary of a day I did right

The traditional gift of the sixth anniversary of my marriage is acceptance. It is a squint across this hard life to see the peace that is always there. It is the blurring of the edges between you and me.


It's accepting this promise wasn't a minor detail. It is a powerful, terrible, magical promise to walk with you to the end. 
Brian, the day I fell in with you was a day I did right.
