I love how he realized the uselessness of war and stopped criticizing those kids who didn'tvwant to get drafted.

They built their lives around their marriage, instead of portioning their marriage around their lives.
Such marriages are the kind that last. You're in it together, the man is not just the ATM and the lady the housemaid and bedmate.
They're a team in everything. They are sharing the journey of life.
Such relationships because they have been built on something really weighty and substantial,... are more fulfilling and last long.
