An article full of wisdom, I think! My husband and I have recently celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary.’People don’t need to be fixed, just loved and affirmed’ exactly sums up what I have discovered over our 25 year journey. It should be in the wedding vows! It’s a wonderful moment when you realise you’ve given up trying to ‘fix’ each other realise you just love each other anyway.
Good article!”If you wish to know the road up the mountain, you must ask the man who goes back and forth on it.”-Zen SayingThe above quote is exactly why I like getting relationship (and other advice) from successful people who’ve “been there done that”.I can only hope to be in a loving, caring, and commited relationship for 36+ years. It’d be a dream come true for me.
