This is short and sweet........

Folks.........it matters who you marry. Simple. True. So much heartbreak and heartache and taxpayer money spent to make up for the oh, so awful things that happen when you marry someone to whom you are not equally yoked. Fortunately and thankfully, that is not my case. Dh is not perfect, which is good, because neither am I. I love him and am grateful for him and all his good qualities. I am a blessed woman and my children are blessed.

Such sad things have been seen on my message board......through the years and with the exception of true unavoidable tragedy (which none of us can predict), the worst situations are with marriages. Oh............marry well. Save yourself and everyone you know a LOT of heartache and stuff by picking right the first time. 'K? Short phrases and prayer emoticons cannot remove the pain that comes from your bad choices. I cringe as I write it but it's true. Natural consequences are just painful....and once again, it is unfair for the taxpayers to have to pick up the tab when you try to support 2 households on an income that is meant for only one. Noone is entitled to anything just because their spouse left. Sigh.............................................................................................
