15/365 You Remain
/THE QUOTE
As perfume doth remain
In the folds where it hath lain,
So the thought of you, remaining
Deeply folded in my brain,
Will not leave me: all things leave me:
You remain.
—Arthur Symons
THE LOVE NOTE
K—
You have been part of my life longer than than you haven't been a part of my life. To be precise, I have known you 56.1% of my life. In that time many things have come and gone. You remain. You are the center of my life, my time, my thoughts, my endeavors, my treasures, my hopes and my dreams. I have been singularly blessed to have had your friendship and companionship for so long.

THE GREAT RELATIONSHIP PRINCIPLE
True love is constant. Since most things in this life are transient at best, it makes sense to invest time, effort, skills and resources into staying consistent. If you don't know how to be constant, then get coaching on how to create balance in the midst of relationship stress. There is great comfort in having relationship constancy as the safe harbor to return to from the storms of life over the decades.
