The roses, the lovely notes, the dining and dancing are all welcome and splendid. But when the Godiva is gone, the gift of real love is having someone who'll go the distance with you. Someone who, when the wedding day limo breaks down, is willing to share a seat on the bus.
If you want your life to be more rewarding, you have to change the way you think.

What we're all striving for is authenticity, a spirit-to-spirit connection.
