"It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages."
— Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
Today Roo and I shared an affectionate high five to congratulate ourselves because we have been married for five years. And for five years we have been happy because we are true friends. Of course we love each other very much, and all the roses and romance is wonderful, but besides all that, the best thing I have in life is a best friend--someone I can talk to about music and movies and dream vacations, someone who gets my jokes or will honestly tell me when he doesn't get my jokes, a good shopping companion and an astute co-heckler of various absurdities we see.
And then when we run out of things to talk about, we can just kiss. So, it really is the best kind of friendship.
