In observing and asking a number of long-married couples what their "secret" of love-longevity is....these three things seem to be the glue: "Keep respecting and admiring each other -- for even if he or she doesn't seem to deserve it sometimes, continued respect and admiration will be the INSPIRATION!" ... "Never think you know everything about the other -- keep asking questions, and listen to the answers" ... Don't listen to the advice of that old movie "Love Story" that said 'love means never having to say you're sorry' -- that's not true -- love means knowing HOW to say you're sorry, and then doing your best to do better!"
