Listen "31. Lessons from 32 Years of Marriage"
Episode Synopsis
As I approach my 32nd wedding anniversary this week, I want to share with you all how my life has been impacted by my relationship with my husband. It’s hard to narrow it down, but there are three major lessons that I’ve learned and ways that I’ve grown since becoming a bride at 24 years old. Little did I know back then that we would become a family of seven and navigate three continents as home base, but through all of that, I’ve learned that there is always hope, forgiveness, and a way through the wilderness. Most of the time, love is not a feeling, but rather a verb. It shows up in the support, the acts of service, and the acceptance of your dark moments. Throughout the past 32 years, I’ve realized that we are both innocent, and we are both guilty. It takes two people to create the conditions where someone gets hurt. It also takes two people to confront those patterns and course correct. As our family has grown, it’s also become clear that our relationship is not just about us. We need to take into consideration how our decisions impact the five other lives that we co-created. For us, it’s been worth it to do the work together and see our adult children starting their own families. Listen in to hear more of my reflections and lessons as I celebrate 32 years of marriage.
