Happy Anniversary

I turned to my wife 5 minutes ago and asked her, "what shall I write about?" She said, "write about how much you love me!"

I looked at her, a bit puzzled; I asked, "why?" To which she replied, “I dunno.” So here I am. Writing about her…and us.

What can I say?

We've been married for nearly ten years. Our anniversary is in a few days! There's that. Some people ask us our secret to happiness, and I'd attribute it to three things.

When we first met, we interviewed a series of successful couples and asked them what the secret to their success was and what we learned was pretty cool.

The top three answers that came back were:

1) Respect

2) Mini-missions

3) Fun

We committed to each other we'd always keep an eye on those three things as we grew together.

The first thing, respect, is kind of a given, but it's so important. But without clearly defining it as necessary early on, I don't think we'd be as successful. Whenever we find ourselves being disrespectful towards one another, we try to catch ourselves.

The second thing, equally important, is to have mini-missions. Always have a few things the two of you are working on, learning, or planning together. It's key. It's easy to lose sight of the relationship so having common mini-missions that lead up to your joint vision is inspiring.

The third, to have fun, is maybe the most important. I mean, if you're not having fun and enjoying the process, then what's the point?

Now, back to my wife. What do I love about her? She's beautiful! Let's start there. She's smart. She laughs at nearly all my jokes! She never takes herself too seriously and is always down to have fun. She's moral and, overall, a very high-value woman. I consider myself lucky to have her by my side. She picks me up on days I feel down. She does the stuff I hate doing. I really enjoy her company and love being with her. We rarely fight and when we do, we make it quick and try and get to the point.

When we first met, she told me she'd be my “personal everything.” How cool is that? My “personal everything.” Ten years in, is she my “personal everything?” Not really. She has a life. But given the context, she still tries her best.

We've got kids, and they need a lot of attention. She has a career and friends and family and interests, etc. I love that about her. Whether I'm in her life or not, her life goes on. I love how independent she can be, and at the same time, she has a solid feminine essence and rarely loses touch with it.

When my wife walks into a room, she lights it up with her smile and energy. She's super friendly and always looking to connect loved ones. She goes out of her way to make me yummy food and is always concerned about a hundred things.

Most of all, she knows that my mission, bitcoin and Unocoin, is my number one priority. That I must give everything towards my mission. She supports that 100% and allows me to go after it every single day.

I'm super happy to be with her.

Te amo mi amor!
