Will Smith’s Sweet Message for Jada Pinkett Smith Offers Key Lesson in Making a Relationship Last
We’ve been in love with Will and Jada since they fell in love in front of our eyes on Fresh
We’ve been in love with Will and Jada since they fell in love in front of our eyes on Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air decades ago. Despite being married since 1997, they’ve remained one of the sweetest and most in-love power couples on our radar.
Case in point: Will’s latest Instagram post, a shoutout to Jada. The picture shows a selfie of the two of them with the caption “I just realized…This year we’ve been together more than HALF OUR LIVES!”
Will and Jada just celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary this past December, which of course they also noted on Instagram. In it, Will shared some inspiring lessons he’s learned throughout the years.
Love is like gardening… I have learned to focus on helping you to blossom into what you want to be (into what you were born to be)… Rather than demanding that you become what my fragile ego needs you to be.
– Will Smith

“20 Years Ago today we held hands and walked naively down that aisle. Here’s what I’ve learned since,” the message reads, which goes on: “Love is Like Gardening… I have learned to focus on HELPING you to BLOSSOM into what YOU want to be (into what you were born to be)… Rather than Demanding that you become what my Fragile Ego needs you to be. I’ve learned to take pleasure in Nourishing YOUR dreams… Rather than wrestling with you to Fulfill my Selfish Needs & Satiate My Insecurities. I have learned that: Love is Listening. Love is Giving. Love is Freedom. Happy Anniversary, My Queen! I am forever Devoted to Nurturing your Deepest Truth.”
Not everyone is as good with words or as public with their feelings as this couple, but it’s an important message for us all. Never take each other for granted, and never stop letting the person you are with know how much you love and appreciate and value them.
