May I suggest an amendment to #9? Thank you is one-half of a mutual blessing. You are welcome respectfully completes the loving circle - as you say, every time.
(Taking nothing for granted as we remember every day that our 57+ years began when our marriage was still illegal in 17 states.)
I love this post. It is spot on. Reading it affirmed many of the things C & I practice, and my choice of the word practice is intentional. That was a new frame of a relationship for me and a perfect one. Many thanks for your essay.
Nancy and I have shared life for 68 years, and you just described it. Plus, every night and every morning, “I love you” and “Thank you” set the course. Thank you, Phil Craig
