We focus on the wedding and not on the marriage.
We attend ‘birth classes’ even though the baby is coming whether you understand it all or know the proper breathing, and yet don’t deal with parenting.
My mother-in-law and father-in-law were married for 63 years. And on his last day on earth they played cards with friends, shopped, made some meals, took care of each other and were as happy as they were the day they married.
They had ups and downs… but they were happy.
It can be done. But it takes something. It’s not magic. It’s not about being a perfect match. It’s about being there and showing up.
