About This Quote
She said that love was the magic ingredient in making a relationship work. Why was love the magic ingredient? Because it made both people in the relationship capable of doing anything to make the relationship work. Love is what gives you the energy to make things happen, not rigid rules about who does what in the relationship. It’s not about doing everything for someone else, but understanding that when you do something, you are giving something in return. And in the end, that’s what love means.
