True love is ageless.

Poetry so often blooms from the pain of life. The poem in this Instagram reel has grown slowly inside me, as I recovered from a painful divorce after 25 years of marriage. However, love always finds a way home to hearts that are open to its healing power. After years of digging, I left the harvest to God, and he answered me with the truest, kindest love I’ve ever known. My husband’s honesty, quiet strength and acceptance of me — as I am — has been a shelter that’s renewing my soul.

When I started to write about this love “at my age” for this reel, my dear friend, @tammyhinkleart had just sent me a photo she’d taken of a beautiful sunset. And so I thought — what a lovely image of something that takes its time, and yet amazes every day. Tammy expresses her heart through her painting, which I hope you’ll explore @tammyhinkleart. And may you always know that love is always on time.

What does love look like to you?
