This guy...

One had the potential to be dad's best friend. They'd go fishing, have a beer and work on a car or boat while mom and I would gab in the kitchen...

One could have been my artistic fit - we could have had a printmaking studio instead of dining room.

One could have been my spiritual pair - we could forever tie two families that have a rich history together. Our parents' dream.

One could have been my musical soulmate. He'd be in a band so instead of buying a new couch we would be invest in a new amp, show tickets, or just sit on the old couch while he'd strum his guitar.

There's a guy in my past to match everything I love. With each I could have had a completely different life then I have today.

But there's another guy.

He doesn't have an ounce of artistic talent and our musical interests are as widespread as our spiritual practices. I can write a list if all of our opposites and it would contain chapters and an index. At one point I was sure we would never have a future. At another point i wanted out of our future. Besides, there were many others I was more compatible with.

But this guy...

This guy...

I married him five years ago, and I still feel like I picked the best one.

Love this guy.
