Giggle because I *think* I know what you're talking about (I've only been married 3 1/2 years, a short time for some and a VERY looong time for others but each year just gets better). Sad because I think people think that a long term relationship is just something you luck into and just happen to be in the 30% or not. But like your comments say, it's something that requires effort. And I TOTALLY give my husband the credit for our success. I have never met ANYONE so slow to anger, so patient, and so selfless. How can I get frustrated and focus on his tiny Achilles heel, when I have an Achilles leg worth of shortcomings that he NEVER says a word about? Also, the last comment about the 20+ years couples having the grace to keep their mouths shut... Why should it be graceful to hide something so beautiful and happy?! That's kinda like hiding a light under a bushel I think. Obviously you don't want to brag or bring others down with your successful relationship, but why shouldn't that be something to show in everything you do? I love that I know that you LOVE your husband! It just makes me happy... And I'm writing a novel again...<br /><br />Thanks for your posts and insight. <br /><br />:)AleaAleahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07757148816405012464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5135620350293548539.post-55723743425629039202011-10-28T09:58:02.619-06:002011-10-28T09:58:02.619-06:00Love this post! and Yes I too sometimes get butter...Love this post! and Yes I too sometimes get butterflies!! 15 years now but I truly believe its all because of the Jesus in my Husband!!!
