Over breakfast one morning a woman asked her husband, “If I died would you remarry?” “Probably,” he responded.

“Would she live in our house, sleep in our bed, and use my golf clubs?” his wife asked. “No,” he replied, “she’s left-handed!”

Love may be blind, but marriage is a real eye-opener! The truth is, there are times in every marriage when you just have to grit your teeth, pray for grace, and remember your commitment before God. Nevertheless, there are many reasons to celebrate your marriage.

Anita and I have been married 42 years! Some of the times have been extremely difficult for both of us. We are both very opinionated and both think we’re right. But it has taken us 42 years working through the difficulties until we know each other’s likes and dislikes like we do today. If it took 42 years to get where we are, can you imagine how difficult it would be to start that process all over again with a new partner? No way, Josè! I’m sticking with her.
