The Wedding Day is not the Apex of Your Relationship: It’s the Start of Your Journey Together
Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee realized that being married is a long process, a journey. You are not going to know everything about yourself or your spouse at the beginning of your marriage. You both will have a lot of growing to do together. But you have to stick it out and ride the waves together (the ups and downs…the good and the bad.) Ruby Dee says:
“Unlike the wedding event, that takes place in a day, marriage is a long process that goes on at some level every day for the rest of your life….We have to learn how to live together… I thought I loved you, Ossie, when we got married, but as I see now, I was only in the kindergarten of the proposition. To arrive at love is like working on a double doctorate in the subject of Life.” – Ruby Dee – With Ossie and Ruby: In This Life Together
“Fifty two years being married, there’s been a lot of overcoming! “... There’s been a lot of struggle there. But marriage is everyday. You think you love somebody, but love is an aspiration. Marriage is more than putting up with each other. It’s a growing up together, coming into maturity and seniorhood together. It’s been a journey, a profound learning experience about each other..”

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
