How to Find Everlasting Love

Yesterday I watched a couple, they were holding hands as they walked through the store. The wife would pick something up of interest and ask her husband what he thought. He would respond and they both giggled liked school kids. It was so cute.  They would touch each others arm when they spoke. The husband would growl a little about something and his wife just waved the comment away with a smile.

I asked a coworker about them and I was told they had been married for seventy years.  Seventy years! That's a long time and they still cared very deeply about each other. How does that happen?  Well I'm sure it didn't just happen. There was probably a lot of work involved, some compromise, forgiveness and acceptance.
