My parents have been married 48 years and always say the same thing — you have to listen more than you talk. Nice to see the big families in Ulyanovsk keeping that alive on Peter and Fevronia day.

Here in Michalovci, I hear the same thing from older husbands - back off and listen. My mother-in-law and grandfather celebrated their 45th birthday and still say they couldn't have done it without it. It's nice that in Ulianovsk near Petra and Fevronia they remind large families like this.

Here in Belgrade, grandma and grandpa always said the same thing - you have to keep quiet when she talks and give in when she's a little girl. It's nice that on the day of Peter and Fevronia they gathered really big families and those old married couples in Ulyanovsk, it really keeps people together.

Here in Sofia, the old people say the same thing - you have to be heard and give way in small things. My wife and I have been together for 27 years, and the hardest thing is still to shut up in time. It's good that in Ulyanovsk they gathered the many children and the golden couples on St. Peter's Day.
