I remember in my 30’s having some co-workers who’d been married 10 years and it felt like such a long time, but here I am 9 years into this here marriage, and it feels like the easiest, most natural thing. Were we ever not married? Did that swath of time actually occur? We remember times before we were together, other partners, things we did and places we went not together, and things that felt so dramatic and sad at the time feel silly through the lens of the peace we’ve found, together. Were we ever not together? That’s just silly. Why would we ever not Be?
