And "learn to live with the flow"or finally "no ship has always sailed smoothly. So why should relationship be any different." Because my dear Louella relationship involving unconditional love, mutual trust and respect and a great deal of divinity does not fit into the examples you give Take care and may God hold your hands while you both and I repeat, both work towards not just sustaining your marriage, but enriching it George Dear Louella

I’m uncomfortable with your using ready-made phrases like “it takes 2 to tango.” And “learn to live with the flow”or finally “no ship has always sailed smoothly. So why should relationship be any different.”

Because my dear Louella relationship involving unconditional love, mutual trust and respect and a great deal of divinity does not fit into the examples you give

Take care and may God hold your hands while you both and I repeat, both work towards not just sustaining your marriage, but enriching it

I married the man of my dreams only to discover initially that life was a nightmare, then I read many books and managed to deal with the issue. Tips from various books and peopled helped me a lot. My mother always said,"Two people to live together is a challenge." It takes two to Tango and I am sure even Camillo may have dreamt of his spouse to be a 'mouse' but it did not turn out so. But when I hear of people after living 24yrs together seperate I wonder did they not learn to live with the flow. No ship has always sailed smoothly so why should relationship be any different. love Louella Thanks for the tip.

What happened between 19 56 and 2009 is what counts Believe me,. they were difficult years, but when you invest in your relationship everyday by having trust and respect and commitment to one another and accepting illness and pain as redemptive, we were able to cling to one another through love Dear Louella

It is great that you have very many memories to keep you going and this web page of yours I am sure it really keeps you busy and often would distract you from grieving the loss and sometimes would make you more depressed. Love Louella All good things come to an end, so do people, relationships..... and the good news is that all Bad things also come to and end eventually. Nothing stays constant and the only thing constant is change. Dear Mr. George,

To love and live with someone for 53years and then to not have that person must be really hard.

It is great that you have very many memories to keep you going and this web page of yours I am sure it really keeps you busy and often would distract you from grieving the loss and sometimes would make you more depressed.

Love
Louella

All good things come to an end, so do people, relationships….. and the good news is that all Bad things also come to and end eventually.
Nothing stays constant and the only thing constant is change.

I should imagine you must be someone with great communicative skills as portrayed in your close chummy writing style, so even though you have lost THE diamond in your crown, the memories you still have of this wonderful being, is a gift that will accompany you here, to the end. Would have been interesting to have met you were it not that I was in Jakarta during your appointment to Paris. This city has become my home over the last 37 years. If you are still around, would be so pleased to make your acquaintance when I next visit Bandra. Insha Allah!! Lorena Bécart.

But that does imply I had forgotten you and your ability to find beauty in even sordid situations. Glancing thru your latest articles, this quality permeates thru your words of love and admiration for your 'Old Girl'. I am sure she enjoyed reading it -- and, most probably, telling the folks up there about the scamp she fell for! Keep in mind, Georgy Boy, Thecla will be watching, so you have to take care of yourself -- at least for her sake! It’s been ages since I visited your exciting website.
