33 years

Tomorrow I celebrate my 33rd wedding anniversary. While our core values and commitment to God and to one another have never altered, we've seen lots of change over 33 years. Life has a way of doing that.  Marriage has a way of doing that.  Children have a way of doing that.

To grow and to mature, whether in Christ, in life or in marriage, one must be ever expanding one's paradigm
( set of assumptions, concepts, values, and practices that constitutes a way of viewing reality for the community that shares them).

Hopefully, as we travel through life, our core convictions, deepen.  Our love broadens and we continue to press on to take hold of that for which God has taken hold of us. It is a dynamic process. As we grow older, may we remain forever young.
