... all my accomplishments in life, I considered an enduring marriage my highest goal and greatest success. "Tamara," I said slowly, "how do you know I love you?" "Wh...what?" she stuttered. "You said you knew I loved you enough to allow this. How do you know I love you?" We had talked about this before we were married. Instead of talking about careers, the number of children we wanted, and white picket fences, we had philosophical discussions about life, love, faith, and our place in the universe. From those discussions I grew the courage to propose and the confidence she would accept. This was the foundation of our time together on this earth. "I just know, Simon. You tell me all the time." She shrugged. "We talked about it a long, long time ago, Tamara. Think life, love, faith, and our place in the universe." She took time to remember. "You do things for me you wouldn't do for anyone else. That's love." I nodded. That's what we had decided, all those years ago. "And how would I know you love me?" I asked. 'I do things for you I wouldn't do..." The realization shook her. She buried her face in her hands. "Oh, Simon, I'm such a fool. Such a fool." "You crushed my heart, Tamara. I'm hurt beyond what I thought possible. "If you call him now and cancel, I'll work with you to repair our marriage. I wouldn't do that for anyone else, Tamara."
