This man has helped my heart grow twice as big. Through two years of healing I realized I wasn’t broken, and it wasn’t about who I wanted in my life, but what I don’t have to accept. That opened a portal that allowed the man who found me alone on couches when I was 15 passed out, places I shouldn’t have been, and brought me a blanket, over and over, time and again, checking to see if I was safe, to re-enter my life as two whole people, continuing on a journey of love, healing, and peace. He doesn’t just “accept” my playfulness, he encourages it, bringing out the best version of me.
Each year we head to Oktoberfest to celebrate where we had our ‘first second date,’ as he calls it. A reminder that anything is possible, even 35 years later. 🙏
Finding ourselves allowed us to find each other again and how blessed are we to meet this amazing man who will be designing our rings… what? rings? Yes, there is a story… stay tuned… 💫
