About This Quote

The greatest gift in marriage is when you learn to give up the "Me" for the "We." Marriage is all about sacrifice. When you are married, you are no longer an individual. You are part of a team! You are not only working out your differences with your spouse, but also with other family members, friends, and co-workers. To be successful in marriage, it’s important to step outside yourself and put the needs of the other person ahead of your own. That’s what it means to be a team player!
