Life has a way of pulling us in a hundred different directions. Work. Family. Business. Responsibilities. Before you know it, you're living beside each other instead of truly being with each other. There wasn't one big moment that made us fall deeper in love. It was hundreds of small ones. A quiet evening on the couch. Ten minutes before bed. Standing together looking out at the trees. Sharing a song. Holding hands. A Home Depot date. Small moments that became anchors. In this episode, Bruce and I talk about how we've intentionally and sometimes unintentionally created space throughout our marriage. Space to slow down. Space to breathe. Space to hear each other. Space to hear God. Those moments became our anchors through financial struggles, raising a family, building businesses, and every season in between. We also talk about taking responsibility instead of assigning blame, how personal growth has allowed us to fall in love again, and why friendship may be the strongest foundation a marriage can have. The truth is, relationships rarely fall apart all at once. They drift. The strongest marriages aren't built on perfect circumstances or grand romantic gestures. They're built by two people who keep choosing each other, protecting the space between them, and throwing the anchors in before the current carries them away.
