Today it’s our little festive traditional two hour drive up to Oban. To visit Aldi for our “Christmas Shop”. Mainly because they sell Stollen and some other nice festive foods that we like.
I know. But myself and Ineke have been doing it for years. It happens to be (like today) on, or very close to, our wedding anniversary. Thirty Seven years now you ask. Thank you.
It’s blowing a hoolie out there, so it will be a wet and windy drive. But these little traditions and habits, that develop over the years, are part of the glue, part of the love, that keeps 2 people together. The kind of thing, in fact, that helps to build the love.
Not the only thing, or, in fact, the main thing.
The main thing is learning to let go of the past. The good and the bad. Somehow we’ve learnt to do that. And it’s all history now, even if we do repeat some parts of it. Like the Aldi thing.
But today, we Start Afresh. I love you Schat!
