I know a woman who makes a point of telling her husband about her day, whether it was good or not. She talks about her hopes for tomorrow, and for days more distant in the future. She genuinely wants to know more about other people, and is really interested, and she is great at talking to people and making them feel important and unique.

The only part that is confusing to me, is that I am her husband. This vibrant and compassionate woman went and got hitched to little me, it's been 14 years, and I don't know why she stays.

But I'm glad she does.
