What Will Matter

QUOTE & POSTER: The Viability of Love. When you love someone intensely, you are vulnerable to intense emotions. Pride and pleasure are amplified, but so is disappointment and anger.

A test of the viability and durability of your love is when you have a disagreement or fight (and you will) how long you hold on to your anger about what you fought about and how soon the anger is replaced by your regret that you fought at all. The shorter the time span, the greater the love. The geater the time span the greaater the risk that the relationship is no longer based on love but on memories and obligations.  Michael Josephson
