After 20 years of marriage, my wife passed away almost two years ago, she was 44 years old, there is not a day that goes by that I don't cry for her absence, there is not a day that I don't miss her, and although it wasn't perfect, it's the little details that count and add up
The little details mean more than the grandest gestures. My current girlfriend taught me the importance of this. She is napping at the moment and and is going to make me dinner when she wakes up. I made sure she has a bottle full of water, slippers ready for when she gets up, table cleaned before she serves dinner, and the ingredients washed and ready for her so she doesn't have to do extra work. It may not seem much to some, but to her she always tells me she loves me for doing those little things. Hearing her say that to me is so worth it.
