Annie and I were married at the county court house in Erwin, Tennessee. We are officially husband and wife. After being together for over five years, it didn’t seem like a big deal, as we already felt married in our hearts for quite awhile. However, we were mistaken. The sacrament of marriage has deepened, and continues to deepen us, in ways we would not have known without taking the step forward together. The two have now become one, with God taking the lead. There’s a new level of depth and richness in our communion, that was previously unknown. As Eckhart Tolle once said: “The purpose of a relationship is not to make you happy but to make you conscious.” We hold our marriage as a daily, spiritual sacrament where every challenge is an opportunity to learn, grow, and awaken in self-realization. To deepen in union, and harmony, with the Creator together. That’s the commitment. We’re so grateful to all the friends, and community, who have blessed us along the way with your wisdom, love, and support. May the highest purpose of our covenant continue to, more powerfully, support others to continue to shed old skins, and meet the highest, and best, version of themselves. Thank you so much for sharing the journey with us in whatever ways you have over the years. We love you! The best is yet ahead. -Brian and Annie
