But without mutuality at some point, it isn't going to happen. Just like our relationship with God. Without our being responsive to Him, the fellowship falters.

My wife and have gone through every up and down you can imagine. Almost divorced 2 yrs ago. We both made the decision to CHOOSE to love each other. And even more importantly asked for God's will in our lives. We are more in love than ever (21 years). I completely agree with the idea that Love is a concious choice.

With me being a morning person and my wife being a night person, finding personal time when both of us were awake enough to enjoy it was difficult. Now that the children are grown up and in college, seems like we have been able to revert to the more romantic days of when we were first married. Yes, the girls still roll their eyes at us, but I think that they really enjoy it knowing that mom and dad are still in love. My parents never showed that sort of affection for each other -- at least not in my memory. I'm glad that we can. Raising our children seemed to take a lot of emotional energy.
