Dear Aida,
Lasting love is not an accident.
It does not survive on chemistry alone.
It does not endure because two people are “meant to be.”
It is built — painstakingly, intentionally, patiently — through the choices two people make again and again.
A partnership that lasts is not one without difficulty.
It is one with shared commitment to navigating difficulty together.
