My twenty-third
wedding anniversary is rapidly approaching, and it got me thinking about how my
wife and I have made it this far on our long and winding journey of wedded
bliss. I'm not saying that we haven't hit a few bumps in the road, had a few minor
fender benders, or had to pull each other out of massive potholes once in a
while. We have experienced some tough times over the years, but we've always
managed to come through unscathed, still in love, and more determined than ever
to make our marriage last. A good marriage certainly takes a lot of work. My
dad once said to me,
"Son, marriage is like a job. It is also probably the hardest job you will ever have in your life. The one difference between a job and a marriage is that with marriage, you never get to retire."
