Keep the story of you two together!
Two people together is a miracle. I am seeing that everyday. You don’t only thrive in the ups, the downs build you. There will be moments when you are writing the story, telling it from one side, your side, when the other side, with all its twists and turns, pushes forth a narrative of its…

Keep your core like emeralds!
The core of the strong are like emeralds waiting for light to reach them. They breathe and thrive in pain. They prevail knowing, in the end, they are treasured even if for some moments. The weight they carry feels like death, feels like life too. At least they know death, they know life, they know…
