"There are many things, I'm sure," she said, "without which we could not live...
But love is the only one I can think of."
Some secrets for staying in love, so you never have to live without it:
- Recall why you fell in love in the first place.
- Count your together blessings, together.
- Tell private jokes, and laugh often.
- Think about the problems you used to have and how you solved them together.
- Anticipate doing something you both love to do.
- Watch your favorite old movie.
- Take a long drive and listen to the music of your olden days.
- Pray for each other.
- Decide that unity is more important than being right.
- Remember that love is not something you get, it's something you do.
