My Genea Year

Genea is the greek word for generation, which in bible thinking is the 40 years when you are in the prime of life.

I was 24 when I married Laura. 24 years of moving, growing, learning, preparing, and launching into adult life. In a few weeks Laura and I will mark four decades of life together.

I plan to spend my personal blog time celebrating the joyous fact that I did not go that way alone, but with my friend, who is as familiar as ever, and as mysterious as ever. The one I know and don't know in the mystery of marriage. We are different and we are one. It's very cool to celebrate.

I do not hold my marriage to be the greatest or the worst example of a good marriage, just to proclaim from the rooftops that it has been a good journey together as we continued to make contributions to those places and people we shared, and the common life of our times.

So, Happy New Year to all.
