In the beginning, being alone is always a choice. Then it's not a choice anymore. When did it stop being a choice? What is it in me that stopped choosing you, that moved into you instead so that I have to be with you in order to be with myself? Gunnar Ardelius
About This Quote

The first part of this quote is more about mental health. It’s an important message for anyone who has struggled with depression or anxiety. If you’ve ever felt alone or empty, you know how easy it is to convince yourself that this is the way life is supposed to be. Why would you want to bother with the hard work of finding something good in the world when it’s just so hard anyway? The second part of this quote gets into the heart of what marriage really means.

I think that many people have a great understanding of what marriage means, but are too focused on their own desires to really see all of the different ways that marriage works. Marriage isn’t about staying faithful, it’s about being faithful together. It’s being able to trust each other so completely that your lives are intertwined and you can never be apart.
