as we get older we tend to be more conservative in terms of the things we would attempt to do, so our world gradually shrinks because we tend to stay in our safe and comfortable zone, experiencing less and less as we prefer the sameness of our routines. but for this trip i deliberately wanted to break out: haven’t drove in a foreign country since 2019 but we wanted to experience something different. am glad we did so, and i love that she supports my weird endeavours even though she tends to be skeptical. what a wonderful place to spend our 110 months together, how lucky i am to be able to build memories with her, that i can still delight her by bringing her to experience a new place, that we can still attempt to find some joy and brightness in chaotic times. we both don’t take peace and health for granted so we try to cherish the present and do everything we want to do while we can. after living for more than 4 decades of life i realised how difficult it is to find someone who is not only on the same page when we met but also still moving in a similar direction after nine-ish years together. it is so precious to grow together, to have someone to share and endure the messiness, heartbreaks and surprises of living. happy 110 months: i just like being with you so much i want to go everywhere and spend everytime with you.
