About This Quote

Marriage is a beautiful thing. The ability to share our lives together. There are not many feelings that can be felt by two people as deeply as the one’s that two people feel when they are married. They will understand each other in ways that no one else can understand. They will grow old together and fight the same battles that all couples fight, but they will love each other through it all.
