Relationships are always a two-way street. It is not something we invest in, put it in a box and expect it to grow. Relationships take time, effort, constant nurturing and no one knows it better than John Henderson, 106, and his wife, Charlotte, 105, who have been married for 80 years now. 

They are now officially the oldest living married couple in the world.

Married in 1939, the couple has made it to the Guiness Book Of World Records as well. Also, after their relationship has given some major 'goals' to the world, they shared their profound secret for a successful marriage. 

“Take every day in stride. Try to make tomorrow better than today. Be grateful for what you're given and make the best of it. And don't overdo anything. Live in moderation. Don't overeat, don't over drink. Don't do anything that you'll be sorry for later on,” they said in an interview.

John and Charlotte Henderson were recently named the world's oldest living couple. For their 80th wedding anniversary celebration, 106-year-old John picked up Charlotte, 105, in a 1920s roadster — much like on their first date — with a bouquet of flowers. https://t.co/62cFjHCcKN pic.twitter.com/hCulzafOpZ

They met back in 1934 when Charlotte was studying to become a teacher and John was a football team coach at a school.

Absolutely heartwarming ð¤ð¤ð

Amazing! Wish a whole lot of young couples would learn from such, and the incredible part is that both are above a century old.

In a world where love and companionship has become a rarity to find, it is a story like this which reinstills your faith in the concept of true love.
