You know what they always say? Love is being insane — until you get married. And then often it just becomes torture! The same goes for friendship. But I do want to share with you a quote that carries me through a lot of the difficult times we feel with friends and loved ones…. It’s from an Anglican bishop from the 1600s. Goes a little something like this:
“Marriage hath in it less of beauty, but more of safety, than the single life; it hath more care, but less danger, it is more merry, and more sad; it is fuller of sorrows, and fuller of joys; it lies under more burdens, but it is supported by all the strengths of love and charity, and those burdens are delightful.”
– Bishop Jeremy Taylor of the Church of Ireland
It does explain a lot about why we end up having friends who drive us nuts and significant others who make us want to pull our hair out. But at the end of the day…. Making the commitment’s all that matters. It’s your lifeblood. It makes it all worth it. But one thing’s for sure:
Ensure you’re choosing the right person! I know, I know…. Easier said than done.
