I think of marriage differently. A Companionship of like minds. A tie that binds, yes, but in the binding comes strength. A lifetime with your dearest friend as your truest and best companion. That is what it can be. I believe that.

About This Quote

This quote is quite profound and shows the idea of marriage as a life-long commitment. It is not about saying, “Hey, let’s get married,” or “Let’s just be with each other until one of us dies.” The quote is very much about committing to each other through thick and thin. Having this kind of relationship requires love and respect, but most importantly it requires lots of communication between the two people involved. If you truly want to spend the rest of your life with someone you must come to know them very well so that you can truly understand their faults and their strengths. When you know each other well enough, you can go through life with each other knowing that there is someone there who will always be there for you no matter what happens around you.
