Unfortunately, the committment that marriage is supposed to be is ignored by most younger people today. It isn't supposed to be easy—choosing to spend your life with someone is not going to be... they are going to have many differences from you and those differences are what make it both so interesting and so challenging. They change relationships like some people change suits.

If you can't make the committment that marriage requires... don't get married. I understand the commitment marriage takes as I was married, and would still be if I had any choice in the matter. I am not divorced. I am a widower. If I had to do it all over again, knowing I'd still lose her in the end, I would. Every moment I got to spend with her was worth it.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
