Sparkle? There's a sparkle? It's not something that is qualitatively shiny, Disney storybook they lived happily ever after.

We go through things together, as opposed to seperately. We like to be with each other more than any other person on the planet. She is my favorite person to be with at any time.

But sparkle?

All things lose their shininess and dull over time.

But relationships deepen, they don't get shinier or brighter. They deepen, in understanding and emotions. Bonds get harder to break because there's more attachment. It's not about giving or getting a new present, yes there's a part of being thoughtful. When you see a spouse worry over the crumpled body in a hospital, that's not shiny, yet that's very important to a relationship.

Relationships have their ups and downs. They have their hardships and tests. Deeping your emotional attachment and understanding of the other person, helps get through those times than holding some tchotcke that was given on some random day.
