thank you, boo 1-4-3

there is something to be said
when 2 people can dig and dig and dig,
often in frustration,
in search of reconciliation and clarity
and still come out of the struggle
with an even greater desire
for a positive outcome,
for an even greater desire
to love the other more.

don't get me wrong.
the digging sucks.
it's tiring,
maddening,
and often feels fruitless - like a dog chasing its tail - when
you are knee deep in it.
but the search for truth makes it worth it.
and when two people are committed to that,
even with the roller coaster-like process,
only good can come out of it.
