Ultimately The Bond Of All Companionship

“Ultimately the bond of all companionship, 

whether in marriage or in friendship, is conversation, 

and conversation must have a common basis, 

and between two people of widely different 

culture the only common basis possible is the lowest level.”

~ Oscar Wilde

Single Is No Longer A Lack Of Options

“Single is no longer a lack of options – but a choice. 

A choice to refuse to let your life be defined 

by your relationship status but to live every day 

Happily and let your Ever After work itself out.”

~ Mandy Hale, The Single Woman: 

Life, Love, and a Dash of Sass

My Wife And I

“My wife and I just don't have the same 

feelings for each other we used to have. 

I guess I just don't love her anymore 

and she doesn't love me. What can i do?"

"The feeling isn't there anymore?" I asked.

"That's right," he reaffirmed. "And we 

have three children we're really 

concerned about. What do you suggest?"

"love her," I replied.

"I told you, the feeling just isn't there anymore."

"Love her."

"You don't understand. the feeling of love just isn't there."

"Then love her. If the feeling isn't there, 

that's a good reason to love her."

"But how do you love when you don't love?"

"My friend, love is a verb. 

Love - the feeling - is a fruit of love, the verb. 

So love her. Serve her. Sacrifice. 

Listen to her. Empathize. Appreciate. 

Affirm her. Are you willing to do that?”
