True Love is the gradual deep understanding of your Spouse, and a spiritual empathy towards them. As they get older, and change, you eagerly continue to turn pages of your lives together, studying and empathizing with a person that you do not need to be defensive or suspicious of. ”

To find them, look for tiny interesting choices. And remember that you are always making up the future as you go. ”

- Randall Munroe
