Elena and I celebrate 16 years together today. In Buenos Aires she had it made in life. She was a medical doctor and cancer specialist. She had a beautiful condominium that was "free and clear." She had a new car that was paid for. She had a nice family who loved her. She gave up this assured life to come 7,000 miles to a strange country where she didn't speak the language perfectly. She was coming to live with a man twelve years older than her. I did not make a lot of money or have great prospects in life. We loved each other but were also very different. Elena took a giant risk. It worked out. Elena thank you for the best 16 years of my life!!!
Life takes us in many strange directions and wonderful discoveries. It never turns out the way we thought it would.
