I think we have aged like fine wine

First row (from left to right) is me, my father and my grandfather. Second row is my great-grandfather, great-great-grandfather and great-great-great-grandfather

We've had our ups and downs!

I noticed how much my dad loved me when I went through photo album after photo album… hundreds of pics of me growing up with him on the other side of the camera. ❤️

I didn’t understand why my mom bought that plaque of me but now I’m so grateful 🥹 she’d be so proud.

It's been a great journey. I love my wife very much. We've been together 28 years and we just had our 25th year anniversary

Couldn’t find pictures of my great, 2nd great, and 3rd great grandmothers unfortunately.

Edit: Thank you all for commenting. It’s been a long slog.

Doesn’t feel like so. Man I feel like I should have lived a little more. A very memory. So much of worry future and the responsibilities I carried, I sometimes feel like I should have lived a little more.

I think my grandma was mid 20’s here, my mom would have been early 20’s, and I’m 32.

I was going through a 5-year relationship breakup, a drug addiction, rehab, undiagnosed bipolar, losing my house and my job, moving back home, etc. It was a rough period of time. These are almost exactly 1 year apart and it took them almost 2 months to send me my new one! I have been on HRT for about 3 months now

Sorry for repost, I didn’t know it was going to imgur originally…

To commemorate the start of our new(nomadic) life, we went back to the place we started our life together 14 years ago.

I lost my thyroid. At 18 I was skinny as hell and my face was all water. At 30 I am medicated and well! 2014 vs. 2025
