“In the end, all that ultimately matters is what you’ve done. Not what you’ve said, or promised, or intended. This is a hard lesson for me because I can talk a great game. I would like talk to count. But it doesn’t, not in the final tally. If I’ve told someone I love her and have not demonstrated my love with fidelity and care and long-term commitment, then in the end, my talk of love matters little.”
