Makoto and Judy Fujimura:

A true marriage is different from a “relationship” in its essentials. Marriage is about two equals, each delighting in the other’s gifts without expecting praise in return, freely participating in one another’s successes and coming to terms with failures, without demanding reciprocation, and promising to love and support each other’s current and future identities.
