If I hadn’t stretched myself and found a new horizon I could traverse within my soul, I wouldn’t be basking in this perfect day, inside all the unbridled joy of these men, men who I was damn proud to call my teammates, my friends, and, more than that, my family. I wouldn’t be in this chair, holding my husband’s legs across my lap and watching the sunlight slide across his freckled face as my heart skipped and skidded.
