I stayed the night at my
grandparents
lastnight...
my grandma told me that they have been together for 57 years.
They met when she was 21 and I believe he was 23. I was
amazed and I asked her "So, what would you say kept you
two together?" She said "Don't ever go to bed
mad. Talk about your problems and get them settled."
They help each other out and do things together. They joke
with each other
and act like they are still twenty year olds. I then asked,
still being amazed, "57 years is such a long time, I
would think you would lose interest in someone after an
amount of time." She shook her head and said "I
never lost interest in your grandpa. I love him very
much." Then my grandpa came in a few minutes later and
she jokingly said "I was just talking to my
girlfriend." And my grandpap jokingly said to me
"I'll fight ya for her!". My grandparents also
never fight. My mom said they have only had a few big
fights.
I love being at their house and hearing what they have to say
about everything.
Hearing that story makes me believe in true, life-lasting
love and I had so much fun. I love my
grandparents.
