Quarrelling

I saw an old couple quarrel today.

Both at least 50, with over 20 years of marraige. But quarrelling. In a good way, though. Quarrelling to point out loopholes, blindspots, to give each other a healthier, more complete view of the whole situation.

So quarrelling can be good, as long as it does not turn into arguing. How many couples have the strength to quarrel constructively? How many people suffer in silence, always giving in, never pointing out where their partners have gone wrong? How long do people take to grow up and become stronger?

Will I ever quarrel with you?

I hope I eventually do.
