I suppose, in the beginning, it was about excitement paired with unknowing commitment.
Now that we are older, and family members have passed, we are each other's support and encouragement. Our commitment is based on an invisible bond that ties us from the past to the present and future.
When I was younger I would think: Could this person be replaced by another, so my life could be better/more exciting? Now I think, there is no other individual, on the face of this earth, that knows my history and has stood beside me. I will never find that loyalty and love anywhere but beneath my roof. It's sacred and unwavering.
