The Art of Marriage

This is on a canvas hanging on the wall of my office:

"A good marriage must be created.  In marriage, the little things are the big things.  It is never being too old to hold hands.  It is remembering to say "I Love You" at the end of each day.  It is never going to bed angry.  It is speaking words of appreciation and demonstrating gratitude in thoughtful ways.  It is having the capacity to forgive and forget.  It is giving each other a safe place in which to grow.  It is not only marrying the right person, it is being the right partner."

The fact that I bought it at Cracker Barrel doesn't diminsh the message despite the kitsch......
