…but with each month we both transform slightly, the resulting relationship changes slightly, and how we co-exist in that relationship differs slightly. without knowing it, the way we have loved each other has made tremendous leaps since 104 months ago because of these slight changes day by day, month by month. just like how running every day changes our biological endurance, the small little ways we love each other every day — the mundane things we do for each other, the casual conversations, the questions we still ask so we can keep knowing each other better — they have all stacked up and fortified our togetherness, and it shows in trying times. i used to think that loving a person takes a ton of effort, but when something keeps being actively circulated and cherished, it spills over like an overflowing well. and there is this urge to smother the other with that overflowing affection, and then love: just becomes so much part of everyday, so much of us, and so much of what makes these words flow out out of me, incessantly.
