33

As I reflect today on another year, now 33 of marriage to Tami, I am a bit overcome.

Collecting reflections on this in recent years has made me recognize a bit more of what all is happening through this experience together.

What a deep beauty is the kind of acceptance we have learned—an acceptance both of ourselves and of each other.  Even more resonant is the opportunity each of us has been given to grow—to not only be who we are, but also to change.  I am so excited about the growth I see in Tami and how that has en-couraged growth in me.

It is sometimes easier to see such things in another than it is in oneself.  But, the mere likelihood that what happens in another is also happening in me is more than enough.  I am so grateful that we have learned to trust this more and more.  And, as a result, I can hardly wait to continue growing...together.

With such deep affection for you, Tami.
