Joe and
Laura,
I love your story and tell it regularly. Modern love in the Facebook age, a couple of crazy kids from the seventies….and as I know you’ve told everyone: who knew, at 15 years old, what such a future would hold?
I love your story and tell it regularly. Modern love in the Facebook age, a couple of crazy kids from the seventies….and as I know you’ve told everyone: who knew, at 15 years old, what such a future would hold?
But who
would want to?
Would anyone
have taken the road they chose, if they knew where it would lead?
Wouldn’t we just sit and wait for that
destination, and then miss it, because we’d never even begun our own journey? The joy of life is the intersections of our
paths, whether those crossing trails are professional, personal or our eventual
partners.
As we join forces, the road becomes wider: busier, with more notable destinations. Education, Career, Family…and then we take an exit, perhaps without even signaling; sometimes slamming on the brakes to the curses of those around us. Sometimes reading the signs and getting into the turn lane, signaling to everyone our intentions.

We pull off
and then wonder, “Hmmm…is this the right road?
I don’t see any sign…did you see a sign?” Some may stop and ask directions, some will
retrace their steps and return back to the previous road, some will forge on
whether certain or not of the turn they’ve taken.
And
some…some, without question or hesitation hit the gas.
Guess who we
are toasting today? Full speed ahead, to
Joe and Laura!
