Part Two: His story…Today

Fast forward to the present day; suffice to say, she hasn’t kicked me out of the house (yet), an astounding feat of love, patience and fortitude that defies logic and common sense. I am not an easy person to live with: impossible at times. I think there is a measure of masochism and madness in any marriage; ours verges on the next level. But, we communicate and operate following a code of brutal honesty, fierce loyalty and the shared goal of growing old together (very ambitious).

We’ve even managed to become business partners, more or less. I’m not boss material, whereas Karolina excels in this role. We bring what we can to this arrangement; sometimes, incredible things happen, and our material finds its way into your classrooms to educate young minds. At other times, doors are slammed, things are broken, and vows of silence are taken. Jokes aside, and quite possibly for the first time in my life, I am making a difference (hopefully for the better) in someone else’s life. That I get to do so with the love of my life is a miracle heretofore unlooked for.
