Pearls of Wisdom

95% of a successful relationship is simply showing up.

"I love you" has a worth unparalleled to the human psyche.

Never hold back, because who dares, wins.

True love is more than a candlelight dinner with roses and jewlery.  True love will hold back your hair when you're wretching from a stomach flu.

Always say what you are thinking.  Never assume attempts at mind reading will be successful.

Hopefully, you will never have to feign interest in the life of your loved one, for being your loved one should make that person inherently interesting.

When all else fails, try laughter.

You are better off on your own than in a bad relationship.

Honesty is a really good idea.  For one thing, it makes for less things to remember.

Don't confuse love with lust, although both have their place.

True affection requires no learning because true affection is its own best teacher.

When all is said and done, life really does go on.
