Nearly a decade ago, I bought us tickets to the Houston Symphony as a gift for Robert. We had a high school friend that had just earned a chair and it was Christmas. We went. We had a fantastic time.
Yesterday, in my email, I received an email from the Houston Symphony.
Dear Robert, yadda yadda yadda....
Seriously. It was a slap. I mean once I cracked his email password, I stopped checking it. Really it was too painful to look at all of the stuff that was being sent to him. At this point in time it is extremely rare to get email addressed to him in my email account. I unsubscribed from it all years ago...yet here we are.
Six and a half years later...approaching his birthday and looking at another email.
I simply hit delete because there is no value in looking at some reminders. It was a one time event in our marriage....there was millions of one time events. What is most important are the memories that define us and define me. I choose to focus on the ones that bring me a smile.
