     One year ago today, this time to the minute, she came and sat down on the bench next to me.  “Are you okay?” she asked.
     “Nervous,” I responded.  I was shaky, worn out from the prior week, and hadn’t slept a wink.
     “Me, too,” she said.  “Let me see your eyes.”
     I looked over my sunglasses.  “Let me see yours.”
     We peered into each others’ souls.

     And that was what began the most terrifying, enlightening and wonderful journey I’ve ever taken.

     Happy Anniversary, baby.  I love you.
