Marriage For Me

Marriage For Me

Though you're not out to hurt feelings, into every relationship a little confrontation must fall, otherwise someone is not being real.I don't pretend to know what love is for everyone, but I can tell you what it is for me; love is knowing all about someone, and still wanting to be with them more than any other person, love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about yourself, including the things you might be ashamed of, love is feeling comfortable and safe with someone.

MARRIAGE 

I didn't marry you because you were perfect. 
I didn't even marry you because I loved you. 
I married you because you gave me a promise. 
That promise made up for your faults. 
And the promise I gave you made up for mine. 
Two imperfect people got married and it was the promise that made the marriage. 
And when our children were growing up, it wasn't a house that protected them; and it wasn't our love that protected them - it was that promise.
