Sparks are just that. Sparks. They burn bright and fade just as fast. The key areas to highlight are can they have a conversation without being bored? When you are 60 and your kids have run off with whatever laloo khet individual they meet, the sparks don’t keep your marriage alive. It is the ability to communicate and understand each other.

If sparks just burn and fade off, the entire internal combustion engine would be a sitting duck. They dont just fade away in a working unit, they continue to spark, even if it is a 1000 mile journey.

Maybe its a poor analogy that they use, but for two people to last a life time together, they need to have an understanding, likeness for each other, and this is what they refer to as sparks.
