Sometimes sacrifice is quiet, humble, and never noticed. Thank someone you love today for what they have done for you.

Sorry to hear that nopa, you have my sympathies. I hope the resonance you felt was of good memories and not painful. Take care.

Thanks Thparky. Many good memories and plenty of laughs, we had a great life together (32 years married).

Well congratulations on that! It's nice to see that longevity in marriage hasn't completely disappeared. My wife and I are coming up on 13 years this month, so many jump right into marriage and don't consider what it actually means and divorce is just way too commonplace. Happens all the time though. It's hard work to stay together sometimes, I wish there were more out there that would actually do it right. Remembering the good memories and all the laughs goes a long way towards keeping it together though, sounds like you and her had it good. That alone is enough to make me smile so good on you! Cheers.
