My Lady Wife and I could be quiet together for hours at a time. I think that was a big factor in how long we were together. She passed away 10 years ago. I still miss her.
When nothing is left to say or do, / And nothing’s left except just you two, / Well, then take a rest. / You’re really quite blessed, / If you just remind him or her that “I love you.”
If my wife and I ever run out of things to say, I guess we’ll just start over. But after 38 years we still like to talk to each other, so I’m not really concerned about it.

Opal i don’t believe you. A woman never runs out of things to say.

Earl seems to have plenty things to say to his grandson, although most of them are lies. Uh, untrue stories.

Earl has a good reason to be suspicious of her silence. The calm before the storm!

Forty years ago, Earl probably got tired of Opal interrupting him every time he started to say something.

There is something soothing about being in the silent presence of two deeply in love each other.

Now I know that this is just a comic. This would never happen in real life.

“Don’t you have anything to say to me?”
“About what? We’ve been in each other’s company for the last 72 hours; you know everything that’s happened.”
Yeah, after 40 years, 8 of it retired, conversation slows down some……

My husband and I take turns being the one with nothing to say. The switch back and forth can be 3 minutes or 3 weeks.
