Sad write...How does one know that they have fallen out of love? How does one distinguish that from having let the relationship go unattended and have not keep the embers smoldering when one could just fan the embers and get it crackling hot again..Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and commenting..Your encouraging words are so uplifting...Sara

As per your comments, Harry, my cats took little interest in mice as they got older. They didn't "earn their keep" but I always adored them anyway. Love, Carolyn

This statement surely packs a punch, Harry! So true! We learn from failures and losing a loved one is motivation to want to start anew on a more solid foundation. Well done, my friend! Goes to my favorites along with you. Love, Carolyn
