a: successful relationship ~
b: building a home out of bricks
What:
"Relationships must have trust to work right. Let's suppose that a successful relationship is like building a home out of bricks, and let's say the bricks are the good memories and the wonderful way you treat each other....makes sense, right? Well, let's say that the mortar that holds these bricks together is TRUST...trust holds it all together, and without that mortar, the bricks just fall to the ground and you can't really build a strong brick home can you? Good memories and good treatment of each other, held together by strong trust...it works. "
