I ran across this a couple days ago and thought it was one of the most interesting things I’d read when people talk about marriage.
I also think it’s smart – and true. Yes, stuff happens that we can’t control. Yes, there are a zillion outside influences that can hurt (or help) a marriage, or a life. But still – how we decide to react, how we choose to deal with these things – that part is in our control.
And happily ever after is a pretty good goal.
Just some thoughts mid-way toward my anniversary….
