seventh of May. Oh, I don't want to get emotional
reads my wedding Anniversarry today And in the old day
Harley and I would have been going out to dinner tonight,

(00:31):
but he's not well enough to do that. But I've
been thinking about this. How long have you been married, Brendon?
Thirty three years? And when you when you stand there
on your wedding day and you say forever, what does
that even mean? You don't even know. I think all
you can say is I kind of feel the weight
of potential that we can go somewhere here. And when
you say the words for better or worse, you know

(00:53):
what do they mean? When you're in your twenties in
sickness and in health, in sickness and in health, and
yet that's where we are, and no concept of what
that means until you're living it. And I can't fluctuate
between taking great pride in the fight that we are
alongside each other and there's strength that takes together up

(01:13):
every day and still fight it and still live it.
But I don't think you can get thirty five years
without the sands shifting between you beneath your feet. If
you're living life, you don't get did Cherry pick life. Sure,
you engage with it as you find it, and Harley's
very stoic, but it's hard, and you know it's I'm

(01:39):
grateful today that here we are thirty five years and
we're still in it together, but it's hard. I never
think of the what ifs, because I think that's just
that's where madness lies. But you do fluctuate between dealing
with what's in front of you and having the absolute

(01:59):
shits that you're dealing with what's in front of you.
But as we've spoken about, before you scratch the surface.
Everyone is going through a story, and to think of
the journey you embark on thirty five years ago, it's
a very long time. And we've lily lived a rich
and wonderful life together and we still do. But it's
not the same as the old days where we'd be
going out to dinner tonight, but the boys are coming

(02:20):
over for dinner and I'm grateful we still have each other.
But oh, I wasn't going to get emotional. But anyway,
happy anniversary, Harley, can we got it? Sure? Take some teacher.
Thank you. You are such a trouper, you know. But

(02:41):
it is that thing, isn't it on your wedding day
where you think no one knows what Rides's friend for?
Exactly none of us do. As Harley himself says, we
all have an asteroid coming at us. We don't know
what it is, and and do you want to know?
That's another thing, isn't it. We all think that we'll
get to ninety and die in our sleep. And I

(03:01):
think the human condition is you can't afford to think otherwise,
or as you wouldn't get up in the morning. But
people face stuff every day and it's the that's the
meat of life, that's the meat of a long term relationship.
So I'm grateful to have that. Let's let's take a break,
Let's do it.
