英语原文
We didn't know much about each other twenty yueas ago.We were guided by our intuition;you swept me off my feet.It was snowing when we got married at the Ahwahnee.Years passed,kids came,good times,hard times,but never bad times.Our love and respect has endured and grown.We've been through so much to-gether and her we are right back where we started 20 years ago—older,wiser—with wrinkles on our faces and hearts.We now know many of life's joys,sufferings,secrects and wonders and we're still here together.My feet have never returned to the ground.
