Winning is Losing
Colbert J King has been married to his wife Gwendolyn for over 51 years now. And he shared the following about his marriage in an article that he wrote for the Washington Post:
“First of all, I learned that winning was losing. If winning led to unhappiness, then, at the end of the day, I was unhappy. That’s because Gwen’s happiness, to borrow a thought, was essential to my own.
Put another way, “If momma ain’t happy, ain’t nobody happy.””
We’ve said this countless times on the site. If you are focused on being right and if you are focused on proving your point, then you need to check yourself. Your true focus should be on resolving any issue or problem in a manner that is best for you as a couple.

So inspiring. Great read Ronnie! My grandmother told me that the hardest thing sometimes in a marriage will be to stay married because you are two people from two different places coming together to be one and living in the same space everyday. Not always that easy… She was right. They’ve been married for 60 years. God love them!

Hey this is kinda of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or
if you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding experience so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello there! Quick question that’s completely off topic.
Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My weblog looks weird when browsing from my apple iphone.
I’m trying to find a theme or plugin that might be able to correct this problem.
If you have any suggestions, please share. Many thanks!

Amazing blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere?
A theme like yours with a few simple adjustements would really make my
blog stand out. Please let me know where you got your design. Thanks
