At 73 years old, I’m sharing something I wish I had understood decades earlier.
My wife Mary and I were married for 41 years. From the outside, it looked like a good marriage — stable, loyal, comfortable. But comfort is not the same as connection. And by the time I truly understood that, it was too late.
In this video, I talk honestly about love, marriage, emotional neglect, and the quiet mistakes that slowly damage relationships over time. Not cheating. Not fighting. But indifference. Complacency. Assuming there would always be more time.
This is not a story about blame.
It’s a story about regret, reflection, and the lessons that only become clear when life forces you to stop and look back.
If you’re married, in a long-term relationship, or even thinking about love and commitment — this message is for you.
Don’t wait.
Love the people in your life while you still can.
