Why I Still Love You: 100 Reasons
Gregory E. Lang
Falling in love is easy. We all search for the person who will complete us, the one who will fill our hearts with joy and bring a sense of security to our world. But staying in love is another matter. It requires effort to sustain a long-term romantic relationship, and it is no wonder that couples who are successful at it are often viewed as having something "special." In Why I Still Love You, Gregory E. Lang gives a hundred reasons for why romantic love flourishes as he honors couples who have created a lasting love.
Ideally, as a couple grows together, so too does their love. While the initial intoxication that comes with falling in love may fade over time, it is replaced with feelings of attachment, a deep bond between two people who have shared thoughts, feelings, and dreams over a period of several years or even decades. This is the love that is celebrated in Why I Still Love You.
A forty-something married man, Lang writes of how he was forever changed after witnessing the death of his elderly aunt while her husband of fifty-one years held her hand in her final hours. Lang writes of his wife, "When I next laid eyes on Jill, I saw her differently. I held her differently. I loved her more."
The affirmations found in this thoughtful book will appeal both to couples who are struggling to keep their passions alive and wanting to breathe new life into their relationship and to those who are celebrating a marital milestone. The sensitive photographs of loving couples of many different ages and backgrounds complement the text.
