I was married for almost 42 years, and believe me you do have to work at a marriage. No its wasn't perfect - is life ever ? But overall it was great.

Was I lucky - I dont know or were we just well matched. We didnt lose the "spark" and despite having children it was always "us" , not in a selfish way, that took precedence. Think the children benefited from this as they had 2 happy parents.

Sons both in their forties now and one asked me just before his 11th wedding anniversary, how did you and dad stay so close to each other for all those years. Told him it was just th way it was.
