Anniversary

Today is my 9 year wedding anniversary. We have been through a lot a things together. We have both needed support at different times and have come though some pretty rough times. I also quit smoking 3 years ago. I made a promise to myself that I would live as long as possible to be with my wife so I had to stop contributing to my destruction.

Today we had to bring our dog into the vet and have a toe removed. She had a tumor or massive infection that is eating the bone. She is in lots of pain and the only thing to do is to remove it and all of the infected tissue. Hopefully she will feel better and heal quickly.

The dreams we create,
The possibilities we explore,
The experience we enjoy,
Push at the open door.
Share life with each other,
Show truth to one and all,
See meaning in simple beauty,
Give of yourself and so much more.
When life gives you struggle,
When everything goes astray,
When you can't seem to find the answers,
Know a balance is what you crave.
