“A
great
marriage
is
not
when
the
‘perfect
couple’
comes
together.
It
is
when
an
imperfect
couple
learns
to
enjoy
their
differences.

of
ourselves.

“Marriage
is
not
a

It

It’s

It’s
the
way
you
love
your
partner
every
day.

“Marriage
is

a

and
a
spade.

“Being
in

it
every

I
still

it.

“The
best
love
is
the
kind
that
awakens
the
soul
and
makes
us
reach
for
more,
that
plants
a
fire
in
our
hearts
and
brings
peace
to
our
minds.
And
that’s
what
you’ve
given
me.
That’s
what
I’d
hoped
to
give
you
forever.

“Getting
married,
for
me,
was
the
best
thing
I
ever
did.
I
was
suddenly
beset
with
an
immense
sense
of
release,
that
we
have
something
more
important
than
our
separate
selves,
and
that
is
the
marriage.
There’s
immense
happiness
that
can
come
from
working
towards
that.

“Marriage
is
a
thousand
little
things…
It’s
giving
up
your
right
to
be
right
in
the
heat
of
an
argument.
It’s
forgiving
another
when
they
let
you
down.
It’s
loving
someone
enough
to
step
down
so
they
can
shine.
It’s
friendship.
It’s
being
a
cheerleader
and
trusted
confidant.
It’s
a
place
of
forgiveness
that
welcomes
one
home,
and
arms
they
can
run
to
in
the
midst
of
a
storm.
It’s
grace.
It’s
something
to
be
worked
on
and
cherished
every
day,
together.
