He hand carved more than 6,000 steps over the years for my mother's convenience, although she doesn't go down the mountain that much."

That's true love, although she could have at least pretended the steps were semi-useful by using them more.

A most beautiful love story! Reminds me of the Taj Mahal: this one could be most interesting in that it involves a defiance of taboo in the magical name of love.

Oh, I thank you KRose for befriending me because otherwise, I could have missed this one. Brings back the faith of the skeptic woman in the tribe of men. I know it's more than love--the man felt love and combined it with conviction. Or maybe they were soulmates who promised before not to separate in this lifetime?

Madbickwoman's right, this one's Good and News. Inspiring Good News.
