Love and Like, Both Are Important

Since I was a young boy, I dreamed of one day experiencing the romance that my parents enjoy.
The important part of their relationship is that they like and love each other.  You may wonder what the difference really is.
I see the difference this way.  There are couples that I know that love each other with all of their hearts.  There is no doubt.  I don't believe that every couple really like each other.  The proof is that many men and women enjoy their own interests and appear to be self-absorbed with the things that they personally enjoy.  The people who like each other enjoy being together, as much time as possible.
I have been blessed to marry a woman who likes to be with me.  I, in turn, enjoy spending time with her.  I can't imagine life any differently.  I'm not saying that the way others do it is wrong, but it makes me grateful that I enjoy what I do.  There is security and comfort that comes with that.
I have a firm belief that happiness will prevail, between a man and a woman, when they like as much as they love.
Thanks, Becky for a wonderful life!  You make every day as good as it can possibly be.
