What Makes A Marriage Last?

We know of so many failed marriages these days and the consequences of a broken family especially to the children. I think it would be a whole lot better to remove that phrase "failed marriage." What fails are the people who have forgotten or do not really know what marriage or what love is. That's why it's so nice sometimes to look at old married couples. You got the feeling that the love they have has been worked at, far from the idea that marriage is based on love, and therefore, if there is no more love, then the marriage is useless, so better to let go and love again.

Love is when i see an old couple still very loving in their old age, clasping each others wrinkled hands and still seemed to find each other irresistible even when they both doubled in age and weight.
