I guess the toughest lesson on love for me is the reality that love is fought for in the everyday grind.  It’s never in the big battles, standing behind your loved one, it’s the day after uneventful day, that you prove your love – days that turn into weeks, that turn into months, that turn into years, that eventually, hopefully, turns into a lifetime together.  The vows are exchanged during the wedding, but the proof is in the daily pudding. I must say, in terms of the quality of the entries sent, one of our best Top Ten ever. So many quotables!
