I have been married to a wonderful man for 57 years. ( since I was 20).
I realize that young people don't see a lot of long-term marriages these days, so we are pleased to announce our years to young couples who are trying to make it work.
I say marriage is like going into business with someone. One must realize that it's not just the romance. My husband says one must learn to think "we, us & ours" instead of always "me, my & I." it means sharing, compromising and continuing to do interesting things together. You must enjoy each other's company. Laugh it off, sometimes!!
