Life just isn't slowing down. I'm so proud of how far I've come. The insecure, lifeless woman I used to be is now nowhere to be found. The community I've fostered and the relationship I've cherished fulfill me to my heart's capacity. Everything is going as it should, and this time - I mean that. Yet, I can't fight the dissembling feeling that the more we grow into the people we have worked so hard to become, we'll eventually outgrow each other and drift apart.

Making her my wife has been long overdue. Being with a woman who clings to her autonomy is equally challenging and rewarding. Although, I'd be lying if I blamed her for the time it's taken me to finally set things in motion. When you fall into a routine and days blur into each other, time flies unnoticed and life events that force you to pause seem to stop time completely. I'm done waiting, it's time for me to make good on the forever I promised her so long ago.
