This married couple had a huge fight. A completely chaotic one. The house was a mess because the deranged wife threw things at her husband. The husband was honestly trying to be calm. By the time the wife almost had a hammer above her wedding ring, he stopped her and said, "If you really want to divorce me over something this little, go ahead. But first, do me a favor and write out the reasons why you honestly hate me so much. I'll write a list about you as well to be fair, we'll trade after we're both done." The wife actually calmed down this time and agreed to write a list.
The two sat in opposite sides of the messy room and began to write the list. The husband seemed to have stopped writing early. The wife smiled to herself, knowing that she would make him feel guilty, she kept writing every little fault that she found with her husband after all these years. She was already furious that the husband dared to write anything at all about her, 20 minutes had past and her list was already a page long. The wife was satisfied and traded papers with her spouse with a cold look in her eyes. As the wife read the words her husband had wrote, her eyes softened and tears started to fall. She wanted to take her piece of paper back, she was pale by the time she finished reading her husband's paper.
Her husband had written: "I'm sorry. No matter what happens, I will still forever love and cherish you."I'm not exactly a sap for these things as much anymore, but at the time I thought this story was really sweet. My parents awed over it for a while, or my Dad anyways.
Another link I'd like to share was one Lewis found a while ago. It's about what kids thought love really meant to them. To couples and non-couples alike, Happy Valentine's/Single Awareness Day.
And to Lewis, I'm glad I got to surprise you this morning! :)
