Twenty six years ago we walked down the aisle of all aisles to the beat of a pop chart hit called, Mendelssohn's Wedding March:circa 1900. From a serendipitous conversation in a coffee shop on board a cruise ship, two ordinary lives became one in an extraordinary way, as seamlessly as, adding water to instant coffee. By the by, I highly recommend the midnight buffet on the love boat. It was certainly pay dirt for us.
Current Score
Home team (Us) : 26 [] [] [] [] [] Away team (Future): until death do us part
It's half time and the team is still out. Certainly life has thrown us a few Mulligans, but like everyone else we have done the ups and down dance, the sickness and health walk, the richer or poorer saga, the good and the bad news game and the greatest shared event of all, the miracle of creation and birth. And that was just the first half.
The second half is about to begin and we are in position for the his and hers rocker phase, the my turn at the remote deal and the final stretch. This last stretch is called, the no matter how bad it can get, we are going to get it together; our original promise stands.
