No money. No roadmap. No guarantees. Just two hearts that refused to give up on each other. We’ve been through storms that would’ve broken most people. Silent battles behind closed doors. Nights we cried ourselves to sleep, questioning if we’d ever make it out of the struggle. But even in the darkest moments—she never gave up on me. When I felt like I was nothing… she reminded me I was everything. I was belittled. Bullied. Laughed at. Counted out. But she still looked at me like I had a future worth fighting for. She saw who I could become—long before I ever saw it in myself. She stood by me with a kind of love this world rarely gives. And I’ll never stop being grateful for that. But the real turning point? When we made God the center of our relationship. That’s when everything started falling into place. The peace, the growth, the blessings… they came when we stopped trying to carry everything on our own and let faith lead the way. It wasn’t perfect, but it became purposeful. Now we’re slowly building the life we used to only talk about. We’re not “there” yet—but we’re so far from where we started. This isn’t luck. This is grace. This is love built on faith, tested by fire, and held together by God. We’re still growing, still learning, still climbing—but we’re doing it together. And that means everything. “We didn’t just survive—we grew. And now we’re blooming in the same soil that once tried to bury us.”
