Quote for Today
“Marriage is so unlike everything else. There is something even awful in the nearness it brings. Even if we loved someone else better than - than those we were married to, it would be no use. I mean, marriage drinks up all our power of giving or getting any blessedness in that sort of love. I know it may be very dear, but it murders our marriage, and then the marriage stays with us like a murder, and everything else is gone.”
George Eliot
Marianne Evans Cross [1819-1880],
Middlemarch (1871-1872)

To care about others ….
To hope their marriages work …
even though
sometimes marriages don’t.
To see people in wheelchairs
and hope they get better.
To feel heart storms
as kids get yelled at
by angry parents.
To become overwhelmed
with joy when someone does
volunteer work for others.

HOW YOU DEAL
WITH A BITTER DEAL
Some people get a bitter deal.
Some get a better deal than others,
We wake up some mornings
and all goes well for the day.
But some days all goes wrong.
Sometimes it’s not our fault
when the yoke breaks.
Sometimes it is our fault.
What we do next is what’s
important – especially if we
love scrambled eggs.
