I've been married for 11 years and I don't take it for granted. You never know what life will throw at you, where you're going and what you're going to be like when you get there. <BR/><BR/>Everyone wants to romanticise love and being married, and not understand the reality of it. Shit happens, if you manage to stick together, fabulous, but nothing in life is guaranteed and you're just setting yourself up for a fall if you think that.<BR/><BR/>My favourite quote is: "Love beings with a smile, grows with a kiss and ends in a tear." Really puts it in perspective doesn't it? All relationships will end, it's just the how and when that's up in the air.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18499463.post-55219886936907139922008-04-24T10:14:00.000-04:002008-04-24T10:14:00.000-04:00Kip, I look forward to following your journey.

Thanks for a contribution that makes a blog worth reading. <BR/>I've had the unbending support of parents and chose my own path of conservative marriage. Now, I'm heading out on the road to writing more seriously.<BR/>http://piecesofheartvt.blogspot.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04952442938347357506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18499463.post-78518518341001108262008-04-23T15:01:00.000-04:002008-04-23T15:01:00.000-04:00At least you got to that place!

It took me many years of being angry before I understood he was talking about a decision HE made, not my life.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
