There are few things in my life that have lasted a decade. I’ve never lived in the same house for 10 years. I’ve never had the same car for 10 years. Or computer. I’ve had my bike for more than 10 years, but it hasn’t been ridden for 10 either. I have been playing guitar for more than 10 years, but not the same guitar (although my first acoustic from 14 years ago is still kicking about). While it feels like eternity, I haven’t worked at IBM for 10 years. I have been using Linux on and off for 10 years, but only as my primary desktop for about 7 or 8.
But on Saturday, Heather and I will have been married for 10 years. Depending on the stats you read, it would appear that we are now in the minority. We’ve certainly passed through the statistically difficult period (the 25-29 age bracket has the highest %age of divorces). It hasn’t always been easy, but I have no regrets, and still very much believe in marriage, both generally and specifically.
Apparently, it takes the average person 9 years of marriage before they start thinking unselfishly. So things should be getting much better now 
Roll on the next 10.
