Doug and I have been married for 15 years today. We have been through a lot over the years and it has only made us stronger. Doug is a peace maker and is very patient where I have a strong opinion at times and struggle with my patients . I like to think for the most part we balance each other out. Well ......Doug balances me ........FINE! when he is around. I do love him with all my heart and we really do have a great marriage. Doug has always found things to help out. With him being in a lot of pain this last year and it has been a struggle but he still will find things that he can do for me to help out. I enjoy spending time with him and I pray for many more years together. Here are two of my favorite quotes.
"How sweet is the assurance, how comforting is the peace that come
from the knowledge that if we marry right and live right, our
relationship will continue, notwithstanding the certainty of death and
the passage of time. Men may write love songs and sing them. They may
yearn and hope and dream. But all of this will be only a romantic
longing unless there is an exercise of authority that transcends the
powers of time and death."--Gordon B. Hinckley
"The secret of a happy marriage is to serve God and each other. The
goal of marriage is unity and oneness, as well as self-development.
Paradoxically, the more we serve one another, the greater is our
spiritual and emotional growth."--Ezra Taft Benson
