Today I am telling you a theory I have about marriage (or a long-term committed relationship). I look around and see all the folks who have made it through hard times and stuck it out and they are still going strong. I know the people who got married when I did have had plenty of struggles. Everyone does, right? But, for some reason, they have made it to the other side. Now they are enjoying the grandkids together. They are enjoying a different part of life together. And at the same time, they are rediscovering each other. I am not saying everyone should stay together, but there are a lot of folks who should think twice before calling it quits. (Go back and listen to my episode called "Doing Divorce Well" to get a little taste of what I am talking about). I applaud those of you who have made it through the hard times. I have an aunt and uncle who will celebrate their 70th anniversary next year! It truly makes my heart happy to see the longevity of the love and commitment out there. And for all you young'uns, get yourselves a whiskey box, or a variation of it, and give your future self a way to go back in time and remember the "why" of the union you have.
