Thank you for sharing. I read your whole post and didn't skim one bit. Your relationship and your journey together is very inspiring, and I hope it will also be the same with me and my husband.
We still say I love you too each other (and yes, with conviction, too) even after 10 years of being together. Although we split up briefly for 3 months back in 2016, but it felt like a lifetime, but ever since we reunited, we have loved each other more and more and like never before.
We are also stuck at home, me 100% of the time and my husband is my designated shopper, but it doesn't feel like we are really self-isolating, or social distancing from the rest of the community, because we have always done everything together. We've always spent time together, moreso now, because I haven't been at work since the Australian government announced the social distancing protocol. But I love and cherish every moment that we are together, just loving on each other.
Anyway, thank you again for your beautiful post. The title caught my eye, I thought how can we still show faith amid this global pandemic crisis, but as I continued to read it, it was about your wife, the love of your life, and your beautiful life together, overcoming trials and adversity in life. But through your post, you showed faith in what truly matters in life... love and time.
Thank you. Hope you both and your whole family are well. Keep safe!
Yes, her name is Faith...It gives me the chance to make interesting titles around the name and the words meaning.
We have a pretty nice relationship which has developed over the years; It's based on trust, honesty, respect and a little give and take. It works for us and whilst we certainly have our moments (because I can be a challenge - Lol) we are very happy with our past and excited for our future.
Relationships take effort, as you obviously know, however if a few key elements are present, and both parties show respect, then the reward far outweighs the effort required.
Thank you for reading my post and for sharing a little of your own story. I wish you guys all the best moving forward and am pretty sure you guys have found a formula that works and have the flexibility to adjust when, and if, required.
Stay safe.

My husband can be a bit of challenge, too, and I think he will say the same thing about me, but what we have learnt, especially after that brief separation, is that we just need to listen to and respect each other more, and like you said, "adjust" and compromise when we have to. We have learnt that none of us is the winner in every fight we have, but just sore losers if we let our own pride get in the way. It's not about who needs to say sorry first, or whoever is in the wrong should do it, but be the bigger person to make things right and forgive each other.
Thanks again. Have a great week ahead!
