Caring for the relationship

Love does not sustain itself on its own.

A relationship cools down when it is left on autopilot. It is not enough to love a lot in a generic way: you need to look after concrete details. Love grows in small details, daily fidelity, and attentiveness to the other. The ordinary, when lived well, also sustains a relationship. Caring for a relationship demands real attention: listening, setting aside time, giving thanks, and speaking before small problems become resentments difficult to resolve.
