On August 21,2010 my husband and I celebrated 40 wonderful years of marriage. To us it does not seem that long. We are asked very often how does it feel to be with someone that long? I'm always amazed when I hear that question. It makes me wonder if couples today agree on a length of time to stay married? Do they say - okay we've reached 6 years or 10 years so that's enough. Time to switch!! Surely, they are not hearing themselves.
We haven't done anything unusual except enjoyed each other's company for 40 years. To this day, we are our own "best friend". There is no one we would rather spend time with than each other. We have friends, but they come second.
What I wish for my sons and others is that they find "their soul mate" and live a very loving and happy life. The key is to first love yourself before attempting to love someone else. Sounds easy but its not for some.
Love, Peace, and Blessings.
