Agreed, the other is all! I hate the word " partner". It is so much more than that. Partner is what you have in a law firm or a tennis match! My great love brings me joy....and then... More joy. Together we love our garden, our music, and, above all, our family. But we adore silence together and the singing of the small birds and the thrum of the deep sea! A romance of thirty years is a grand blessing, is it not ? And oh yes, the cuddles are nice! Not too mention our ancient and honourable dog Kildie.

87.whatever or 88% good luck includes finding the right person, whatever you call them, to share life with. There are SO many ways one can guess wrong. Some of us have guessed wrong and then had the very good fortune to guess right finally.

It is often said you can be happy or you can be right but rarely can you be both.

Fair comment Hilo. My late dog was my best friend, faithful hound and pick any line from Old Shep. But like you say, calling your dog your partner just gets the curtains twitching.

I did not mean to imply that the dog was my partner. I meant to say what joy she brings to us. I do appreciate your comment above and thank you for it .
